emacs-app: consider removing dependencies

Reported by: css@… Owned by: css@…
Priority: Low Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.6.0
Keywords: Cc: gcorral@…, ryandesign@…, nox@…
Port: emacs-app

Description

The coreutils, pkginfo, and texinfo dependencies were detected on my system as undeclared dependencies, and that's why they were added in r21091. Reports indicate that everything builds fine without these in place. If the Mac OS X defaults work fine, is it feasible to remove these dependencies to simplify the build process? Does this conflict with the policy of preferring MacPorts versions of software? (It might not, as I believe these are used only at run-time.)

texinfo and pkgconfig should be build dependencies, coreutils should be removed.

I agree about pkgconfig and coreutils. I don't know anything about texinfo but if you say it's a build dependency then I believe you. Changed in r48868.
