Comment (by vinc17 at macports.org):

 Replying to [comment:5 eridius at macports.org]:
 > I'm not willing to tie MacPorts against another packaging system,
 especially one known for providing old, outdated software.

 This is completely stupid! Unison 2.13 is still proposed by upstream and
 not declared as outdated. On the other hand, look at all these useless db*
 ports.

 > The solution here is if you need an old version, you can install it
 yourself.

 Well, I currently have a local port.

 > However, I think the better version is to just install 2.27 on your
 debian machine.

 Too many machines (not just one).
