py-mssql Upgrade Unified Port

[rizwank@…]

This port provides 1.9.909 of pymssql. There are some build errors, but it appears to work fine.

I just submitted the 1.0.2 version; that should be committed first in order to allow selection of whichever version is preferred.

The appropriate checkout.

Why is a distfile attached to this ticket? The port will fetch the distfile from the master_sites.

Why is master_sites set to what appears to be your own personal web space? We want to fetch the latest stable version from the project's official download site. To that end, the port is already at the latest stable version, 1.0.2.

However the developers admit 1.0.2 is quite old and buggy. We could consider updating the port to 2.0.0b1-dev-20130108, for which a distfile is posted on the project's new googlecode home.

If we should do that, please attach a unified diff to the portfile currently in the repository (rather than a complete new portfile).

This ticket was apparently implemented and livecheck reports up to date. In that sense the ticket could be closed. However, a 2.x branch, currently at 2.1, seems to exist supporting Python 3 as well.

The 1.x branch would be at 1.0.3 and supports Python 2.7 as well.

• adapt livecheck

This update should fix this ticket completely. Closing!
