Comment (by pietvo):
I am not proposing to let migrate/restore find out how to break dependency
cycles. That should be done by the person doing the migrate. In my
proposal the default action does not change. Just when this special option
is given, then it would essentially do the equivalent of
`port install <all not yet migrated ports>`. Because that is what I did
after breaking the dependency cycle and installing the affected ports.
Only I had to manually finding out which ports I still had to install, and
then I gave the `sudo port install` command with that list of ports. With
my proposal, if the special option is given `port restore` would just do
this for me. It is the responsability of the installing person if this
goes correctly, like always.
