latex is driving me batty -- ! Package fontspec Error: The font "DejaVu Sans" cannot be found.

Ah, I see this in the current `ghc` portfile. No doubt the solution:

# fix DejaVu texlive fonts names, e.g. "\setmonofont{DejaVu Sans Mono}"
foreach f "\
${srcpath}/${distname}/libraries/Cabal/Cabal/doc/conf.py \
${srcpath}/${distname}/docs/users_guide/conf.py \
" {
reinplace -E "s|(\{DejaVu\[\[:alnum:\]_\]*)\[\[:space:\]\]+|\\1|g" \
${f}
reinplace -E "s|(\{DejaVu\[\[:alnum:\]_\]*)\[\[:space:\]\]+|\\1|g" \
${f}
reinplace -E "s|\{(DejaVu\[\[:alnum:\]_\]*)\}|\{\\1.ttf\}|g" \
${f}
}
