Comment (by mojca@…):

 Can you please open a new ticket with something like "Allow building grass
 without GUI" and CC everyone from this ticket then?

  * Please also explain the situation with dependencies on Python and
 wxPython. (Whether that has to be optional as well.)
  * Do you agree to build GUI by default?
  * Is a new variant `+gui` needed then? (Otherwise, I don't see how one
 could install grass with GUI by default without forcing any wxWidgets
 version on user and yet allow disabling wxWidgets.)
  * Please include a proposal how to change the variants.
  * If possible, please test and report where it goes wrong if you change
 the port your way, install grass without gui (but with wxWidgets and
 wxPython installed on the system), then uninstall both wxWidgets and
 wxPython and try to run grass in your mode.
  * If possible, please explain how to test grass without the gui.

 I don't know how to use grass, with or without the GUI, but I was trying
 to clean up the mess from wxWidgets and I was aware that grass simply
 doesn't work with wxWidgets 3.0 yet.

 I was thinking of creating a subport with the latest version from SVN or
 from weekly snapshots.
