Possibly. Right now I feel a little overwhelmed dealing with MP's API  
and the complexity of trying to build the grass package. That's  
actually a good sign....  <grin>   If I can manage those tasks, I'd  
feel more competent as a port's maintainer

otool reports that only postgresql and libiconv are dependecies.  
pgsql is reported in /opt/local, but for some reason, postgis is  
picking up the iconv library in /usr/lib. Even if I tweak the  
configure.args directive to point to the libiconv port.

I thought I read in the MP guide, that MP sets the LDFLAGS to point  
to the /opt/local/lib directory. Something must be hardwired in the  
makefile or configure script. I'll dig deeper.


Slightly off topic: I like Simon's ruby script that list all the  
dependencies of a port. Also Ryan had posted an graphic image of a  
certain port's dependencies. Is there a MP port that can  
automatically create a graphic image of a port's requirements. I  
tried manually with OmniGraffle, but got bogged down in the details.
