Hi all, I just did a rebuild of packages for my webservers with poudriere. What I noticed was that via the print/cups overhaul (see PR 207746), quite a lot (>50) of additional dependencies are added to the system, = including lots of x11 related libs, avahi, dbus, cairo, opengl, etc. This stems from installing pecl-imagick which results in pulling in = ImageMagick, ghostscript, and cups. Now, of course I can manually remove port options and reduce the number of additional dependencies, but I feel uneasy about the defaults now. If I wanted to adjust an existing port to be less greedy with regards to = dependencies, how would I go about that? Create a slave port? Thoughts, anyone? Martin=
