Of course, you're right. The API changes need attention from each and every
maintainer. But 0.7 is really their oldest release still supported. For me, I
need 1.0 for my port... 

So the preferred way would be, as already stated before: 

sqlalchemy07
sqlalchemy08
sqlalchemy09
sqlalchemy   (1.0)

right?


This PR original question is about allowing a port, that is agnostic to these
API changes, to use any of the above sqlalchemy ports if it is already
installed (as a dependecny of a more picky port). Suggestions using globs or
regex, or simply depend on a file, will all break package dependencies. I don't
think that is a very good idea, but maybe I'm being overly conservative here?

PR#191442 discusses actually updating sqlalchemy. Maybe that PR is more to the
point from my perspective.


Anyway, all I wany is a sqlalchemy-1.0 port that I can depend upon. My python
knowledge is very shallow, and hence my interest here lies not with python
packages as such. But I'm glad to help if we can get this sqlalchemy bit
cleaned up a bit. :) Just tell me what I can do. I have a poudriere setup for
example, but I guess most of you do. :-)
