 needed.

 Yes, I was aware of this. This method has the problem that it can't be
 directly depended upon, because the MacPorts dependency engine doesn't
 handle variants (i.e. you can't easily depend on gtk3 +introspection).
 This makes writing Portfiles using introspection (imho unnecessarily) hard
 and often requires user interaction to get the dependencies right.
