Comment (by ctreleaven):
A binary package is available for libunistring so most people _won't_ get
all the build deps. The build deps are only used when the package is
built (eg on our buildbots). The binary package should include the
documentation and therefore the build deps need not be installed. If any
of the build deps are being installed, it is either due to other packages
or it's a bug we should fix. The list I posted above are the only deps
that should be installed if you are using the default binary distribution.
And, as I tried to say, even if you build from source and _do_ get all the
build deps, you don't have to keep them. 'port leaves' will help you find
all the stuff that can be uninstalled after the a successful install.
The binary packages for libunistring are at:
http://packages.macports.org/libunistring/
The current ones seem to be about 2.6MB so the docs really can't be adding
that much bulk.
