texlive ports collide

[snc@…]

It seems texlive-generic-recommended and texlive-latex-extra collide on at least ${prefix}/share/texmf-texlive-dist/tex/generic/kastrup/binhex.tex

Melchior:~ snc$ sudo port activate texlive-latex-extra
--->  Computing dependencies for texlive-latex-extra
--->  Activating texlive-latex-extra @19538_0
Error: Target org.macports.activate returned:

is being used by the active texlive-generic-recommended port.  Please deactivate
this port first, or use 'port -f activate texlive-latex-extra' to force the activation.

Try texlive-latex-extra @19548 instead :-)

Fascinating. It didn't show up as outdated while it was inactive, so I completely missed that issue until I forced the activation. Now it is indeed outdated, and your fix is likely there!
