I don't understand how that would work: I thought lcdf-typetools depends on the
libraries and/or binaries of either texlive or the Japanese version ptex of TeX.
The texlive variant adds the texlive-bin dependency exclusively for kpathsea.
If you don't use the variant, there is no dependency and texlive's kpathsea
isn't used.
variant texlive conflicts ptex description {Link against TeXLive's
libkpathsea} {
depends_lib-append port:texlive-bin
configure.args-delete --without-kpathsea
configure.args-append --with-kpathsea=${prefix}
}
Doesn't the portfile line
default_variants +texlive
mean that variant is, in fact, selected by default?
When I executed lcdf-typetools, I discovered that macports was about to
install texlive-common. So evidently that variant is selected.
(i) How would one disable any variant whatsoever?
(ii) is kpathsea in fact needed to use the lcdf-typetools in order to
convert and install a font for use by TeX. (That's my whole purpose in
installing lcdf-typetools: to be able to use some OpenType fonts with
TeX, by converting them to Type 1 fonts.)
