After pruning down the 9000+ lines of output from port rdeps --full autogen I came up with a chain of dependencies like: autogen guile libunistring texlive-basic texlive-bin poppler cairo xrender xorg-libX11 xorg-xtrans xorg-bigreqsproto [...] which is to say, it's doing what it's supposed to do. You can follow that by repeatedly doing port info on each of the above, and looking for yourself at the dependencies. :-) _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
