libedit port links to both macports- & native-ncurses libs

[pgnet.dev+macports@…]

i'e installed ncurses via macports,

port installed ncurses The following ports are currently installed:

ncurses @5.7_0 (active)

libedit's port depends on ncurses-port,

grep ncurses /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/devel/libedit/Portfile

depends_lib port:ncurses

@ install of libedit,

port install libedit

the resultant lib is linked against BOTH macports- & native-ncurses libs,

otool -L /opt/local/lib/libedit.0.dylib

/opt/local/lib/libedit.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.28.0) /opt/local/lib/libncurses.5.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0, current version 5.0.0) /usr/lib/libncurses.5.4.dylib (compatibility version 5.4.0, current version 5.4.0) /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 111.1.4)

repeating with an attempted portfile override,

echo 'configure.ldflags "-bind_at_load 'ncurses5-config --libs'"' >> /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/devel/libedit/Portfile

echo 'configure.cppflags "'ncurses5-config --cflags'"' >> /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/devel/libedit/Portfile

gives the same result -- BOTH libs are linked.

should be just the macports-installed libs ...

I see this behavior as well, except in mine the installed macrpots ncurses is not linked at all:

port contents ncurses
Port ncurses contains:
  /opt/local/bin/ncurses5-config
  /opt/local/include/ncurses/curses.h
  /opt/local/include/ncurses/cursesapp.h

Output from otool:
