pkg version - Orphanned status phpMyAdmin 4.7.9

[Jos Chrispijn]

Just found out the flavored ports will end the necessity of slave ports.
Imho that is a great solution, as oneport can result in many packages 
(no need to build you packages as the created port package is more 
flexible).

What I still ask myself:

- what if another program in that package releases a new version- you 
just only recompile that port including the update?
- what effect does this have on precompiled ports?
