--------------------+--------------------
 I have installed py39-nose @1.3.7_2, but the `nosetests-3.9` command is
 not working.  The package installed the following symlink:
 {{{
 lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin  77 15 Jan 23:58 /opt/local/bin/nosetests-3.9@
 ->
 /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/bin/nosetests-3.9
 }}}
 but the real binary does not have the version suffix, therefore the
 symlink is dangling:
 {{{
 -rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  138 15 Jan 23:58
 /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/bin/nosetests
 }}}
 One consequence is that `port select` won't work:
 {{{
 # sudo port select nosetests nosetests39
 Selecting 'nosetests39' for 'nosetests' failed: could not create new link
 "/opt/local/bin/nosetests": target "/opt/local/bin/nosetests-3.9" doesn't
 exist
 }}}
