gnutls dependencies
Hi, gnutls was recently upgraded to 3.6.10_0. When I try to upgrade gnutls, it pulls in a tall list of dependencies: ---> Computing dependencies for gnutls The following dependencies will be installed: clang-8.0 clang_select docbook-xml docbook-xml-4.1.2 docbook-xml-4.2 docbook-xml-4.3 docbook-xml-4.4 docbook-xml-5.0 gawk gtk-doc itstool ld64 ld64-xcode libomp llvm-8.0 llvm_select py27-libxml2 py37-anytree py37-lxml py37-pygments py37-six pygments_select xar Continue? [Y/n]: n Version 3.6.9_0 did not need them and worked just fine. I suspect that all of them are only needed for doc variant of gnutls. I tried to install gnutls without doc variant, but it still wants to install the same tall list. Is there a way to skip them? Or dependencies are always calculated regardless of selected variants? On another system I installed gnutls -doc, and then removed docbook-xml and the rest of the list, and port command did not complained. Thanks, Kastus

I believe you can just specify the variants that you want (for the port and all of its dependencies) at the command line when you run `port mpkg`, can't you? As in: sudo port mpkg lilypond-devel +mactex +perl5_28
MacPorts Meeting 11th-16th October
Dear MacPorters, I would like to remind everyone that we are hosting the 3rd international meeting in Bohinj, Slovenia, from Friday 11th to Wednesday 16th of October. We'll be located in one of the nicest corners of the small country in central Europe, next to a glacier lake, surrounded by the Alps, with lots of options for hiking, cycling, etc. before the meeting, or during the meeting if you happen to bring your own family. We tried hard to make the meeting acceptable to everyone, with just 150 EUR for both accommodation and full board for five nights. We expect participants from China, India, Indonesia, Germany, Italy, Slovenia, ... It's a wonderful opportunity to start hacking together and get your long-awaited features done. https://trac.macports.org/wiki/Meetings/MacPortsMeeting2019 Please consider spending an awesome extended weekeng with us and register here: https://forms.gle/JbSLkykLSZRu7Q4b8 Mojca
