If fixing those two ports is more complicated than just updating them to a newer version, or copying an existing patch from upstream, then yes, it would be fine to create an opencv2 port. However, while it should be based on the last commit of the opencv port before it was updated to version 3, it would need to be modified to install its files to different locations, so that it does not conflict with the opencv port. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
