That is not a port update. Normally you would make things easier to the maintainer by changing the port so that it works and complies with our porting standards:

This said, thanks for letting me know there is a new version. I will update it as soon as I find time (hopefully tomorrow).

Unfortunately updating this is not trivial:

checking for SOQT via cmake

It can't find SoQt but the real problem, and one that threatens the future of this port, is that Qt4 is deprecated, and there has been no official upgrade to SoQt and Coin3D for a while now.
