Hi Jeremy,

Ok now I remember.  There is a tkined X11 editor that gets installed by
scotty.  So I supposed that I should include it as a dependency, though I
doubt anyone would use it these days anyway.

But I didn't think that whether or not a port links against a library
should determine whether it is a dependency or not.  But at the time I
probably didn't fully understand the difference between depends_lib and
depends_run and I suppose it should have been the latter if anything.  But
I'm fine with dropping X11 as a dependency since I don't think anyone uses
tkined anymore.

Mark
