Is Mapnik directly dependent on PostgreSQL? Since PostGIS already requires an appropriate version of PostgreSQL depending on its variant, does this port have to have a dependency on it also?
What if postgis +postgresql90
is installed? py26-mapnik
is going to force installation of postgresql91
anyway.

Mapnik does not depend on postgres. Mapnik uses a plugin architecture for datasources, so if postgres is available the "postgis.input" dynamic library is built so Mapnik will have postgres read support. Mapnik 2.0 (the latest release) supports all modern versions of postgres and postgis.

Right, so all it needs for PostGIS support is the postgis
port. But the current portfile and the patch attached here currently declare a direct dependency on PostgreSQL:
variant postgis description {Builds port with PostGIS plugin} { depends_lib-append port:postgresql84 depends_lib-append port:postgresql84-server depends_lib-append port:postgis configure.args-append PG_CONFIG=${prefix}/lib/postgresql84/bin/pg_config }
Should those be removed then?
