If `port installed requested` shows things that you don't actually want, tell
MacPorts by marking them as not requested:
sudo port unsetrequested portname1 portname2 ...
Then `sudo port reclaim` will be able to uninstall them, if they're not needed
for anything else you've installed. Reclaim won't uninstall things it thinks
you want.
