Comment:

 Replying to [comment:16 jmr@…]:
 > Even though #11897 is fixed, global variants (from variants.conf) still
 don't modify the dependencies displayed by `port deps` or `port info`. So
 some parts of the original patch are probably still needed.

 Resolved these outstanding issues in r44340, and marking the ticket as
 closed. Note that to avoid duplication of code in this fix, I
 reimplemented "port deps" as an alias for "port info" with the proper
 flags to show only dependency information.  This has naturally changed the
 exact text format produced by "port deps".  If the format change is
 problematic (e.g. if anyone was parsing the output of port deps), please
 let me know (e.g. by opening a ticket and assigning it to me) -- it would
 be possible at the cost of slight recomplication of the code to restore
 the old output format of "port deps".
