Ah yes, my setup was created to prevent that and I never noticed that this behaviour had changed. I have been using MacPorts for a *long* time...

Still, it does guarantee me a set that I can rebuild at any time and exactly the same on each of my machines. It also gives me an easy way to mess around with adding stuff and going back to my baseline. So, I’ll likely keep it as is.
