If you "sudo port install" some port that depends on doxygen, and you request variants doxygen provides: * If doxygen is not installed, doxygen will be installed with the those variant. * If doxygen is already installed, it will not be reinstalled with those variants. > I don't know if doxygen itself installs any libraries or headers; if not, it > should use > > installs_libs no > > so that dependents don't have to use depends_skip_archcheck. I think that's what it should do. It installs bin/doxygen and then stuff in share. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
