Comment (by aszostak@…):

 Well, what is the philosophy for this port?
 Does it have a special purpose for MacPorts, or is there to provide some
 of the tools as would be found on a RedHat/Fedora machine?

 My assumption was the latter, in which case the newer version should be
 made available. But if that was not the purpose of this port (e.g. used
 for something specific to MacPorts), then you can argue that yum-
 createrepo should be dropped.
