Comment (by Dave-Allured):
> openldap -> (build-time dependency only) groff
The `openldap` portfile says "The openldap build uses soelim from groff,
and newer OS versions do not provide groff as part of the base OS
install." This brings in an entire typesetting system, including
`netpbm`, to build `openldap`. Is this really necessary? What is
"soelim"? Can there be an easier shortcut to satisfy the "soelim" need?
