 I think it is good idea to make a new port net-mgmt/collectd5. According
 to http://www.collectd.org/wiki/index.php/V4_to_v5_migration_guide there
 is many differences between collectd4 (current ports version) and
 collectd5.
 
 I think there could be many production installations of collectd, so
 this update could very problematic.
 
 So my conclusion it to make a new port.
 
 Greetings,
 P.S. Sorry for late answer, but I was on vacations.

 In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice.
 In practice, there is.
