I have tried to convince Macports not to install any X11 stuff (by setting the global +no_x11 and -x11 configuration variants). The list in my previous mail does not show any obvious X11 applications, but according to your analysis it seems I have not been successful. > you can test this by looking for ~/.fontconfig and > renaming/removing it. A "find / -name .fontconfig -print" with root did not reveal any such files.
