Comment:

 Replying to [comment:1 jmroot]:
 > For wget the dependency comes in via gpgme: gnupg2 -> openldap ->
 (build-time dependency only) groff -> netpbm

 groff's netpbm dependency has been there
 [changeset:37fbab0efe1bd3435a92c643c77b690e7b1700e9/macports-ports for 13
 years] however
 [https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2014-03/msg00125.html the
 developer of groff says] "With the distributed tarballs, there is *no*
 dependency on Netpbm!"
