py-poppler-qt5 depends on qt5 but older macOS versions need older Qt versions

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

py-poppler-qt5 depends on qt5, which is not correct on older macOS versions. Older macOS versions need earlier versions of Qt, provided by other Qt ports, such as qt59. This causes ​failures on earlier macOS versions such as:

Error: Failed to activate qt5-qtbase: Image error: /opt/local/lib/cmake/Qt5/Qt5Config.cmake is being used by the active qt59-qtbase port.  Please deactivate this port first, or use 'port -f activate qt5-qtbase' to force the activation.

(One of py-poppler-qt5's dependencies has properly used the qt5 portgroup, which has resulted in qt59-qtbase being installed; py-poppler-qt5 has not, causing it to try to install qt5-qtbase, which conflicts with qt59-qtbase.)

To address this, properly use the qt5 portgroup and its qt5.depends_component procedure.

I was trying to update the port, but with the latest changes to py-sip (i.e. the update from 4.19.8 to 4.19.10) it does not build anymore. Should I open a ticket for py-sip even if I haven't yet updated py-poppler-qt5?

I filed a ​bug report upstream about this.

#56746 solved the build problem.

I opened a pull request to solve this ticket: ​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/2143.
