Hi,

I occasionally use "port uninstall leaves” to, well, uninstall leaves (limited 
hard disk space). However if I don’t pay attention this will also uninstall 
packages that are build requirements of other packages (afaik, it will only 
keep runtime dependencies). This is a bit of an issue on El Capitan, as every 
package has to be built, and so the next time a package gets updated, I have a 
huge project building all the build dependencies that port uninstall leaves 
indiscriminately removed.

Is there any way to tell the “leaves” target to also ignore build dependencies 
of requested packages (and their dependencies)? If not, should I file a feature 
request bug?

Thanks,

Peter
