too many dependencies

[Jan Stary]

I just selfupdated 2.3.4 on my MacOSX 10.5.8
an try to install autogen.

Surely the xorg-* ports have nothing to do with it.
Why is macports considerr them as dependencies?

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. :-)

No, you (apparently) need them to install autogen. autogen and autoconf are 
different software, available in different ports. If you want autoconf, install 
the autoconf port.

Sorry, that's a typo - I meant autogen.

To correct:
I need jpeg and the whole TeX suite to install autoconf?
