Good day.
There is no consumers left in the ports tree, that depend on this ports:
databases/py-pysqlite20
databases/py-pysqlite21
databases/py-pysqlite22
databases/py-pysqlite23
databases/py-PySQLite10
So it now safe to mark it deprecated and remove in one month.
(Actually databases/py-axiom still dependes on py-pysqlite21, but it deprecated and will be removed on 2011-10-23).
I already wrote about this in more detail [1], but here is the cause of deprecation:
"""
They are unmaintained upstream, not existed on mastersites (besides FreeBSD ones) peaces of software, deprecated upstream, that is for python24 and less. All the modern software uses databases/py-sqlite3, that is a part of python distribution since 2.5.
"""
Port databases/py-PySQLite11 is still required for:
misc/diary-hercules [new version use sqlite3]
irc/py-supybot [implicit, for plugins]
I will handle them later.
