Comment(by mlund@…):

 It seems safer to let your port rely directly on the dependencies such
 that if someone changes for example the kdelib portfile, your port will
 not be broken. According to the kdevelop website, boost (which is tedious
 to compile) is required for building only - not for running. This could be
 implemented like this:

 {{{
 depends_build port:boost port:cmake etc. etc.
 depends_run port:kdelib port:kdevplatform port:qt4
 }}}

 The problem is not huge, since there is currently no binary repository for
 macports and most people of course do their own build. But that could
 change in the future!
