Comment:

 With recent macports versions, the user is prompted with a question:

 {{{
 Note: It is not recommended to uninstall/deactivate a port that has
 dependents as it breaks the dependents.
 The following ports will break: XYZ
 Continue? [y/N]:
 }}}

 To get the old version, use -N so I still guess the text output could
 still be changed.
