--- Comment #1 from Kubilay Kocak <koobs at FreeBSD.org> ---

Currently the port declares:

  py37-click>=5.0 : devel/py-click at py37

Whereas upstream (setup.py) declares:

  click<6.0,>=5.0

Ports MUST exactly match the dependencies declared by the upstream package [1].
Doing so also allows maintainers of ports that other ports depene on to easily
audit consumers for incompatible version specs and address the issue
proactively, before these failures impact users.

See also section on Modifying dependencies (which may apply in cases where
upstreams declare "<X" and you would like to modify/remove that)

All the other dependencies declared by deskutils/py-vdirsyncer should be
audited against upstream <version-spec> declarations and updated to match.
