Could you provide a main.log file showing the problems you encountered when those ports are not installed? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44172#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Let's hold on on this until I get some feedback on the dev mailing list regarding the right way to deal with those things. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44172#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Those are the violations that popped up. Even though `libffi` built fine even without them, some of them may better be added to make it happy/not lose functionality in trace mode. I guess `port:autoconf` and `port:automake` should be added as build dependencies. `gsed`, `coreutils`, `grep` and `cctools` are redundant (the system- provided tools will work just fine.) I probably have to take a closer look at how exactly `autoconf`, `automake` and `texinfo` are being used during the build process exactly and decide once I know more. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44172#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
