Comment (by macports@…):

 Replying to [comment:2 devans@…]:
 > yelp is declared as a run time dependency because it is required to
 display the User's Manual when you select Help->User's Manual from the
 application.  If it is not installed this operation will fail.  So only
 superfluous if you think documentation is superfluous.


 Okay, maybe not ''superfluous'' but certainly not integral to the
 application’s function. As is, the whole thing fails, not just Help ->
 User Manual.

 Plenty of ports have +docs variants, maybe that could be done here?
