 I am not so convinced that case 2 is **not** an issue. Just thing of as
 relatively simple scenario:
 * User P installs texlive meta-port with its default variants. He will get
 `texlive-latex`, but not `texlive-latex-extra`;
 * At some point of his innocent live he wants to install some other
 software, which however depends on lets say `doxygen +docs`;

 dependency `bin:pdflatex` is already satisfied, so `texlive-latex-extra`
 will not become available. I do not think this situation is so remote.
