Comment (by ryandesign):

 `--with-dps` was added in [cea379c3084322297ecad7314f3db9d8ddd99366
 /macports-ports] as part of the fix for #847 but the ticket does not
 explain that change specifically and it was 19 years ago which predates my
 involvement with MacPorts so who knows why that was done at this point.

 As to raqm and flif, I suppose I didn't add the configure arguments
 because I didn't realize they existed. You're right that we should specify
 any `--without-` or `--disable-` flags that we can when that would prevent
 the use of a library that we don't want to use, even if that library is
 not yet in MacPorts. For libraries that are not macOS-compatible, it's
 less urgent since any check for such a library would fail on macOS.
