On that note, how many other ports build html documentation by default? Is this common practice, or should this variant really be off by default?
I'm kinda the default maintainer here, although I only added myself after a default timeout from the other listed maintainers. I generally try to keep all the MacPorts Common Lisp implementations and SLIME up to a reasonable date of freshness, but had no hand in writing the original Portfiles other than those for ABCL and SLIME. For SBCL, it looks like there might be a way *just* to build the html documentation via something like the (to be) attached patch, which should avoid the dependency on the DVI utilities from TeX. Perhaps this is the way to go here, as the PDF doesn't get installed, just built from what I can parse in the Makefile. Otherwise, I would advocate declaring the correct dependency but demoting +html from the default variant. I'm not sure how this will effect already installed ports.
