Comment (by essandess):

 Please see https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/23085

 {{{pandoc}}} hardcodes an {{{xelatex}}} dependency, and every major
 project that uses {{{pandoc}}} like Jupyter assumes that LaTeX is
 installed. One example: Jupyter> Save As pdf breaks without a LaTeX
 installation. {{{pandoc}}} provides a specific file that lays out all its
 LaTeX dependencies.

 See:
 * https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/blob/main/tools/latex-package-
 dependencies.lua
 *
 https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/blob/2514ad25311a68d8244a77e4bfc4fd6e26b6848e/src/Text/Pandoc/PDF.hs#L74-L83
 * https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/blob/main/doc/faqs.md

 The PR already uses a minimized dependency for basic compatibility with
 {{{pandoc}}} LaTeX requirements (several 10's of MB, not heavy full
 TeXLive GB), and adds both {{{-texlive}}} and {{{mactex}}} variants to
 turn off the minimized TeX installation.
