Any ideas? I really need both installed because of dependencies, scm v7.1.0 and v8.0.4.

This is intentional. Additionally, both should not have *any* runtime consumers unless they are themselves are solely build dependencies for others.

I should really formally put this in writing in a better place than mailing lists and IRC, but building Python packages outside of isolated environments like jails or virtualenvs is not really supported anymore, not even in the greater Python community.

I still often build with portmaster because it fulfills my needs well with numerous customized GIS options. Manually, it still works for me to uninstall the unneeded scm version in advance.

Thanks for clarification, really appreciated.
