I add texlive-latex-extra as port dependencies and it works fine. But I don't know if it's the right way of doing deps

Summary: latex2man: dependent on texlive-latex-extralatex2man @1.23: imprecise dependency on texlive

url.sty is provided by texlive-latex-recommended.

% find /opt/local -name url.sty -exec port provides {} + 
/opt/local/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/url/url.sty is provided by: texlive-latex-recommended

I assume you have texlive +minimal or texlive +basic installed. The default is texlive +medium, which installs texlive-latex-recommended, which is probably why no one’s noticed this before.

For now, I’ll just add the dependency on texlive-latex-recommended. More generally, I don’t like the ham-handed dependency on texlive and will try to shave it down soon.

Now that I look at it, latex2man accommodates non-MacPorts TeX installations with a bin:tex:texlive dependency. I’m not sure how to add an analogous url.sty dependency. I’ll have to come back to this later.
