Just renaming the ebuild seems to work. I had to sync with Arch machine which has unison 2.40.102 installed and it didn't work with 2.40.65, so the update is really essential.

Created attachment 340296 [details]
unison-2.40.102.ebuild

Renamed unison-2.40.65.ebuild and make it install icon and desktop file if built with USE=gtk.

This version fixes an annoying bug that shows up when synching large amounts of data: http://trac.macports.org/ticket/35116

Because of this error, older versions are simply not usable, at least for me.

Perhaps this version or an newer one should be marked stable, so that people get a working version of unison right away when installing it.

Is it really the case? unison is supposed to be compatible across the third version number. I Just tested 2.40.102 (from Gentoo) with 2.40.65 (from Debian).
