 Are you sure about this? The {{{pandoc}}} Portfile only specifies a very
 minimal dependency that takes several 10s of MB, not GB:

 {{{
 du -sm /opt/local/var/macports/software/texlive-{xetex,basic,bin,common
 ,latex-recommended,plain-generic}
 12      /opt/local/var/macports/software/texlive-xetex
 23      /opt/local/var/macports/software/texlive-basic
 17      /opt/local/var/macports/software/texlive-bin
 1       /opt/local/var/macports/software/texlive-common
 64      /opt/local/var/macports/software/texlive-latex-recommended
 32      /opt/local/var/macports/software/texlive-plain-generic
 }}}
