Lingering python 3.8 Packages

I recently updated my ports-tree, and encountered a problem removing the old Python 3.8 packages. I've read the UPDATING file - it has instructions for people using portmaster or pre-built packages, but I always build from source. Here is an example of what I am encountering:

Code: 
# cd /usr/ports/graphics/py-cairo
# make deinstall clean
===>  Deinstalling for py39-cairo
===>   py39-cairo not installed, skipping
===>  Cleaning for cairo-1.17.4_1,3
===>  Cleaning for cairo-1.17.4_1,3
===>  Cleaning for gtk-doc-1.33.2_2
===>  Cleaning for gtk-doc-1.33.2_2
===>  Cleaning for itstool-2.0.7
===>  Cleaning for itstool-2.0.7
===>  Cleaning for automake-1.16.5
===>  Cleaning for automake-1.16.5
===>  Cleaning for py39-cairo-1.21.0,1

The old version of py-cairo is removed...

Code: 
# make install clean
===>  Installing for py39-cairo-1.21.0,1
===>  Checking if py39-cairo is already installed
===>   Registering installation for py39-cairo-1.21.0,1
Installing py39-cairo-1.21.0,1...
pkg-static: py39-cairo-1.21.0,1 conflicts with py38-cairo-1.18.1_2,1 (installs files into the same place).  Problematic file: /usr/local/include/pycairo/py3cairo.h
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /usr/ports/graphics/py-cairo

I am looking for a clean way to remove the old py38-cairo-1.18.1_2,1 without causing further issues. From what I have read, I expect the following would work, but it seems rather drastic:

Code: 
# pkg remove py38-cairo-1.18.1_2,1
Updating database digests format: 100%
Checking integrity... done (0 conflicting)
Deinstallation has been requested for the following 20 packages (of 0 packages in the universe):

Installed packages to be REMOVED:
        accounts-qml-module: 0.7_2
        akonadi-calendar: 21.12.0
        calendarsupport: 21.12.0
        eventviews: 21.12.0
        graphene: 1.10.6
        gstreamer1-plugins-gl: 1.16.2_2
        gstreamer1-vaapi: 1.16.2_2
        kaccounts-integration: 21.12.0
        kalendar: 0.3.1
        kf5-purpose: 5.88.0
        kmailtransport: 21.12.0
        libaccounts-glib: 1.25
        libaccounts-qt5: 1.16_2
        okular: 21.12.0_4
        pimcommon: 21.12.0
        py38-cairo: 1.18.1_2,1
        py38-gobject3: 3.38.0
        signon-ui: 0.17_8
        webkit2-gtk3: 2.34.2
        wx31-gtk3: 3.1.5_1

Number of packages to be removed: 20

The operation will free 156 MiB.

Proceed with deinstalling packages? [y/N]: n

I am really hesitant to do that, considering the following other Python 3.8 packages are still installed. Each of these shows a similarly daunting list:

Code: 
# pkg info | grep py38 | awk '{ print $1 }'
py38-cairo-1.18.1_2,1
py38-evdev-1.4.0
py38-gobject3-3.38.0
py38-pyudev-0.22.0
py38-setuptools-57.0.0
py38-six-1.16.0

So, for folks who build from source, is there a cleaner way to remove these?


Thanks
 
I had a feeling that might be the case. Once I get this sorted out, I'll check out portmaster. Many thanks!
