-----------------------------+---------------------
 Following the upgrade to hdf5 @1.14.4.2_1+cxx+fortran+gfortran+hl I get an
 error message in Python when I load h5py. I took care to uninstall and
 reinstall the py-h5py and py312-h5py ports, so now I have:
 {{{
 $ port installed | grep hdf
   hdf5 @1.14.3_4+cxx+fortran+gfortran+hl
   hdf5 @1.14.4.2_0+cxx+fortran+gfortran+hl
   hdf5 @1.14.4.2_1+cxx+fortran+gfortran+hl (active)
 $ port installed | grep h5
   py-h5py @3.11.0_1 (active)
   py312-h5py @3.11.0_1 (active)
 }}}
 The error I get is:
 {{{
 $ python

 >>> import h5py

 }}}

 The error message goes away if I do `sudo port activate hdf5
 @1.14.4.2_0+cxx+fortran+gfortran+hl` and then run python, so it must be
 associated with the patch introduced in hdf5 in #69861. (Also h5py worked
 fine with the previous version hdf5 @1.14.3_4+cxx+fortran+gfortran+hl).
 However, it seemed best to open a new ticket. I am running with Xcode
 v15.3, Sonoma 14.4.1 on an Intel-based Mac mini.
