No, I would agree with you. Even if no ports for the various used ‘local’ 
components exist, for future protection the audacity port should be configured 
to *always* use its internal versions, regardless of what might or might not be 
available via macports (or worse elsewhere). That way the builds remain 
predictable. If at some point ports for one or other of these internal 
components become available, then the audacity port can be, if desired, updated 
to depend upon and use that port. Everything remains deterministic, which is 
how it should be.
