The issue with py-distribute/py-setuptools is covered in UPDATING. Just
follow the instructions.

ODBC is a more difficult issue. There are two ALMOST compatible
implementations of OMDB an most ports use one, but a few use the other. Due
to nearly identical name spaces, it is simply not possible to install both.
Most ports can link with either (see make config), so try to get them all
happy with one or the other and get rid of the one not used. Good luck.
