Comment(by dports@…):

 In order to do this we need to change pdfjam's dependency on texlive to
 something more specific. What packages does it actually require? I think
 just texlive-latex-recommended, and possibly also texlive-fonts-
 recommended?

 Ugh. And I don't know if it's possible to write the dependency in a way
 that'll let ptex satisfy it too. Currently it's
 `path:bin/pdflatex:texlive`. It's not right to just change texlive to
 texlive-latex-recommended, because bin/pdflatex is installed by texlive-
 latex (and can be installed without texlive-latex-recommended). The actual
 file it depends on (well, among tex packages) is pdfpages.sty, but texlive
 and ptex install it into different places.

 Maybe this point will become moot now that ptex is included in texlive
 too...
