Comment (by egall@…):

 `aspell` isn't actually a direct dependency of evince; it's a recursive
 dependency pulled in like this:
 {{{
 Local-Admins-MacBook-Pro:~ ericgallager$ port rdeps evince
 The following ports are dependencies of evince @2.32.0_0+universal:
 ...
  yelp
     webkit-gtk
  ...
       enchant
         aspell
 }}}
 So the dependency actually comes from `enchant`. `enchant`'s description
 says:
 {{{
 all it really does is to \
 provide a uniform wrapper over several popular spell checking libraries \
 including aspell, ispell and AppleSpell.
 }}}
 so you'd think it'd be able to work with either... Would a
 `path:bin/ispell:aspell` type dependency work?
