folding this functionality into `glib2-devel`. (And eventually `glib2`.)

the transition as seamless as possible.

`glib2-upstream-x11` and `glib2-upstream-quartz`.

everything where it goes today. That way dependents can gradually be
migrated to the new scheme.
I see you obsoleted the `glib2-upstream` port in
[https://github.com/macports/macports-
ports/commit/dd7eafbbe991f1727e956427ecbfcfc4b84eacad dd7eafb]; how does
that affect these plans?
