-# 2022-05-20:
-# Due to the increase of the minimum required version of jupyter_client to 7.3.1,
-# which is not yet included in the ports collection, and an actually required
-# version of ipykernel >= 6.9.2, which conflicts with ipykernel v5 (required for
-# other dependencies in the spyder universe), this port may misbehave in some
-# situations.
-# devel/py-ipykernel      should be >=6.9.2,<7, but is 5.5.6 (conflicts ...)
+# devel/py-ipykernel should be >=6.16.1,<7
