ports/170786: [maintainer update] delete port textproc/py-pyx12

[John Holland]

Ruslan,

Thanks for the response.  I am looking to streamline the application update process.  I prefer to use pip to install and upgrade the app to isolated virtualenv.

This is niche software.  I do not believe this is a popular port.  I would be surprised if very many users were affected.

If you feel strongly about keeping the port, I could do what you suggest.  I would probably just update the port on minor releases.

John

Hi John, what the point in removing this port? Why don't you just update it to 2.0.0, change port to install with py-setuptools and change MASTER_SITES to CHEESESHOP?
