Comment(by macports.org@…):

 Replying to [comment:5 milosh@…]:
 > Is awesome really depending on the xcb port? I don't understand how it
 may use X11 cut buffers.

 > Second, if someone already has cairo installed without the xcb binding,
 awesome won't be able to build. Isn't the only solution to create a
 cairoxcb port (prepared to not conflict with cairo) so that we don't have
 a dependency on a variant?

 I've just found some mailing list entries discussing this topic.
 (see also net/nedi/Portfile)


 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.macports.user/5209/match=specify+variant+depends%5flib


 Is creating an additional port (here cairoxcb) the common way to deal with
 such dependencies?

 > Third, if imlib2 is a dependency, I don't believe it might be just a
 build dependency. Same goes for cairo.

 yes, you are right. startup-notification too.
 >
 > Fourth, why move the '/' at the end of the homepage?
 I was confused by the missing separator in the master_sites parameter
 (${homepage}download/)

 btw: the two diff files patch-Makefile.diff and patch-config.mk.diff can
 be removed.
