Comment (by barracuda156):
Replying to [comment:9 RJVB]:
> Yes, I meant the port under discussion, `shared-mime-info`. A port that
is a dependency of others doesn't *have* to have a `+universal` variant to
allow the dependent to install in universal build. In a sense it's
actually better if it doesn't have the variant, to limit unnecessary
propagation of universal installs (which take place and usually increase
upgrade times).
Honestly I do not know if in this case `+universal` matters for
dependencies. You are right, in some case it does not, however certainly
not in every such case.
