Comment (by barracuda156):
Replying to [comment:1 ryandesign]:
> There isn't a way to write such a Portfile. This is why the use of
variants for features that other ports might depend on is discouraged.
>
> The usual answer in these cases would be that either R should include
tcltk support by default or rather unconditionally without a variant, or
the tcltk components of the R port should be split off into a separate
port upon which a dependency can then be declared (if they are in fact
separate components).
I see, thanks. I will think what solution could work better in this case.
