We're also considering to have a "base" set of Bob packages and package those as a whole instead. Do you see anything against this approach?
Not at all. In fact, it might be more 'user friendly' for new users. As I read your online documentation for the first time, it wasn't clear to me what group of packages were needed to build a minimal functional system and which were optional. In this case you might have a single port bob that installs the base set but includes subports for each of the optional packages. Port php is an example that does something like this to handle a large collection of php modules. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/46465#comment:5> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
