Comment (by mojca):

 Btw: a rule that says "uninstall the port unless something depends on it"
 won't help you a tiny bit in case of Geant since:
 * `geant4.x` depends on `geant4.x-data`
 * `gate` depends on `geant4.x`
 So in case of geant: feel free to delete both (times different versions of
 geant, so probably 12 ports). We should keep `geant4.x` on the binary
 package server, but it does absolutely nothing useful on the builder. I
 may also remove the older versions one day.
