Comment 1 Wen Heping freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2022-06-21 07:22:30 UTC 
I found devel/py-absl is the duplicate port with devel/py-absl-py,
and I suggest remove this port.
Comment 2 Kubilay Kocak freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2022-06-21 23:47:04 UTC 
Current devel/py-absl consumers should be tested with and switched to devel/py-absl-py:

  science/py-tensorflow
  misc/py-tflite-support

There's likely very few users of this port given that it has essentially not been updated since originally committed in 2019.  The duplicate arrived in devel/py-absl-py in 2020, and has been tracking upstream updates.

Deprecate this version of the port, and set a fairly short expiration (since there are likely very few consumers of this port).

There is one port left that lists this as a dependency: misc/py-tflite-support.  In a local test, that port seems to work with the newer py-absl-py.  I'll submit a separate bug for that port.  science/py-tensorflow (mentioned in comment 2) was updated to point to py-absl-py (in 2022).

I did not bump the PORTREVISION in the patch.  This should probably be done - if you do, the package will be annotated as deprecated.
Comment 4 John Hein 2025-02-15 23:59:55 UTC 
Note that the maintainer could have provided feedback in 2022 when this was first submitted.  No comments at all now nearly three years later can probably be considered a 'maintainer timeout' condition at this point.
