--- Comment #42 from Matthias Andree <[email protected]> ---
I should add that libxml2 then is the "docs" port that depends on the binaries
and libs, and libxml2-core is the libraries core.

I have heard criticizm that this is inconsistent, but as long as we do not have
a canonical reference on how to avoid circular dependencies, every port is free
to serve best, and we can add a better way compared to ports that solved
similar issues before but did so in a more complex and complicated manner.
