Anyway, SWI-Prolog has no direct dependency on expat. It might have gotten there because SWI- Prolog does depend on X11 fontconfig and older versions thereof had various issues. Maybe a dependency was added to SWI-Prolog to work around a broken dependency in fontconfig?
fontconfig has always declared a dependency on expat ever since the fontconfig port was created 8 years ago in r2665. So can I apply the attached patch to remove the expat dependency from the swi-prolog ports? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/31001#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
