Comment (by master at iaas.msu.ru):

 Replying to [comment:9 loshea at gmail.com]:

 > I still am unsure about some possible additional dependencies.  Michail:
 how does asymptote use libsigsegv and ncurses?

 I really do not care.
 I can see (from configure.ac) that asymptote looks for ncurses and
 libsegsegv.
 It can work without libsigsegv, since it is just an optional library to
 handle page faults.
 It can be linked to system ncurses, but the current macports policy is to
 rely on its own libraries.
 It is linked to ncurses - use "otool -L" on the asy binary.

 What I really dislike is port:teTeX, since teTeX is obsolete and TeXLive
 is already ported.
 A better way is to change it to something like bin:tex:teTeX (do not
 install teTeX if we already have tex)
 or make two variants, teTeX and TeXLive, with port:teTeX and port:texlive
 respectively.
