#47443: Reducing the dependencies of ImageMagick (djvulibre)
--------------------------+--------------------------------
Reporter: ocroquette@… | Owner: macports-tickets@…
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.3.3
Keywords: | Port: ImageMagick
--------------------------+--------------------------------
Currently, the ImageMagick port is unconditionally depending on the
"djvulibre" port, bringing in 160 (!) indirect dependencies, including:
* dbus, and its Launch Agent
* gtk3
* cairo
* python27
* sqlite3
* docbook-xml
* ...
As a quick experiment, I removed djvulibre from the list of dependencies,
and I could build ImageMagick and use "convert" successfully. I suggest to
remove "djvulibre" as hard dependency and/or create a specific variant if
it has added value for some users.
