 variants... those are what was automatically selected. If I should
 uninstall and then reinstall with a different set, then please let me
 know.

 I never requested any variant for LyX. My
 `/opt/local/etc/macports/variants.conf` file is empty (minus the commented
 headers that describe how to use it). I don't recall if I followed the
 Migration strategy listed at [https://trac.macports.org/wiki/Migration
 Migration] for going from Sierra to High Sierra or if I manually ran a
 script to reinstall everything. Perhaps the former approach may set
 variants after migration in such a way as the system think I manually set
 them? I only bring this up because I am concerned that some installed
 ports of mine are not tracking the defaults when I would like for them to.
 Is there a way to reset this behavior or would I need to install
 everything from scratch? Thank you for your help with this.

 compatibility has bitrotted. I could not find an upstream bug report about
 this issue; one should be filed, unless we can determine that it is our
 packaging error.
