Ideally, docs that need significant extra deps could be a separate
(sub)port.

Hi,
I agree they should be the default, ‘by default’, but there are some ports
which have a docs variant that drags in minimum build deps and thus having
enable by default is probably fine. Anything though that drags in pandoc and
the vast array of deps it needs should probably be optional…
I have long thought the doc variants should never be the default.
Lots of bloat and extra deps and build errors.
But I know others feel differently.
I know I can set -doc in variants.conf, but then you’re building everything.

I was going to install exa; I already had the listed build/library
dependencies installed; but the port asked for all sort of other build
dependencies which are not listed as dependencies in the source or as
dependencies of the dependencies. Is that an error in the port or is it
intentional?
