 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.
