Description Robert Clausecker freebsd_committer

Right now, doxygen pulls texlive through the DOCS option (which implies LATEX).  This means that every port that needs doxygen to build its documentation has to pull all of texlive to build.  This is clearly suboptimal.

Is it perhaps possible to change the DOCS option such that it only depends on texlive at build time, not at run time?  This would make it possible to actually have doxygen without a (usually unnecessary, as you said so yourself) dependency on texlive in the packages, significantly reducing the time it takes to compile packages that depend on it.

    devel/doxygen: DOCS optiion should not imply LATEX run dependecy (+)

    Build dependency on TeX is enough to generate manpages and html docs
    Run dependency on TeX suite still kept via LATEX option (OFF by default)
