Also it should be a port:-style dependency, not a bin:-style one. We don't want possibly old and/or broken doxygens the user might have installed elsewhere to satisfy the dependency; we want to use the MacPorts one that we more or less know will work. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38412> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
