This kind of smartness is not a good idea in general, because it does not
translate to binary packages. It's especially unsuitable for
language-bindings - if at some point another port needs libdnet's
python-bindings, it will have no way of depending on them. Consider creating
a slave-port for the python-bindings instead.
