python-related: switch from py*-pil to path-based dependency (openmaintainer)

[Ionic (Mihai Moldovan)]

In accordance with communication on the MP users mailing list, I have changed py*-pil dependencies to path:-based ones satisfiable by both py*-pil and py*-Pillow.

This patchset is tracking and targeted at maintained openmaintainer ports.

(Not CC'ing maintainers, as I have sent them eMails individually and people don't need to be bothered for other stuff but their own ports.)

Is there a revision bump needed here? The content of the package does not change, and once the dependency is in place it does not change either. So revision bump has no real effect on the files installed.

[Ionic (Mihai Moldovan)]

I assumed that the registry is saving dependencies given at install-time as well. Seems to have been wrong, only ports are recorded. In that case, yes, a revbump is not needed.

I'll update the patches.

Okay, I was not considering the registry. Not sure if something changes there. Maybe ask at the MP developer list for details or what impact the change has on the registry status.

[Ionic (Mihai Moldovan)]

I did ask neverpanic, he should know this stuff. :) Waiting for a reply, but I'm pretty sure the registry will be unimpressed, as dependencies are not added literally, only port-based (and we don't really change the dependencies for already installed ports anyway.)

BTW, why do you not use always there more compact path:${python.pkgd}/PIL version?

[Ionic (Mihai Moldovan)]

I can't. python.pkgd is only defined by the python PortGroup. Trust me, you don't want to use the python PortGroup for non-Python-apps... (it sets build.cmd, use_configure no and other stuff...)

[petrrr]

Okay, sorry! Have not looking into the details
