I tried installing Graphite using this port but two small issues that prevent this port from working out of the box.

First, the provided example in pkg-message needs updating as it does not work as-is with apache24 (worked with apache22 before).

Fix:

And the other problem - patch-conf__graphite.wsgi.example contains wrong path to the graphite webapp.

This could have very well worked with STABLE but with CURRENT and apache24 these fixes are required in order to successfully use graphite.
