Comment (by neverpanic):
Aren't those outdated files shipped by dblatex upstream? If so, then I
guess we should consider this a bug in dblatex upstream whenever it
happens, and they should update them to their latest versions.
Or, we need a different version of the +mactex variant that basically does
nothing other than printing a note to explain how users have to install
the required dependencies in MacTeX manually.
I'm inclined to merge https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/7076
because it fixes the initial issue, at least if you already have the
dependencies installed at the time you install the dblatex port. It's
still not a great solution, but it seems the +mactex variant is always
going to have this issue one way or the other.
