I handled this in portmaster by analyzing the CONFLICTS. If a requested dependency has a CONFLICTS line I check the glob patterns against the installed ports with pkg_info and keep going if we already have something installed that will work.

That's not a perfect solution, but it handles all the cases I've seen personally, or users complained about before that feature was introduced.

hope this helps,

Thanks Doug. It sounds reasonable. I'll think to implement it.
