As I said, this patch is wrong for several reasons:
1) Does not take into account case when you install Mesa
then later remove it.
2) Removes files owned by the Mesa package if you install
blender after installing Mesa then remove it.
3) Replaces files installed by the Mesa package if you
install the blender package (as opposed to the port).
Port maintainer would be well advised not to integrate such a
broken patch. If nothing else, however, the port maintainer
might want to include a pkg-message file (or append one if it
exists) instructing the installing user to symlink
libGL[U,].so.14 to libGL[U,].so.1 or whatever it is X4
installed at that time.
This mess would be properly fixed if we had proper magic to
detect Mesa. For example, Mesa should be split out into libglut
so there is no need for the Mesa package if X4 is installed.
