Well I compiled it manually on my system outside of ports just to play with the software.
I don't use xfce so I know it doesn't hard require xfconf in LIB_DEPENDS. Li, I'm betting most of these libraries aren't actually hard-required to build. Could you go through these one by one and actually verify they are needed to build the port?

Yes but then it would pull in a bunch of rather heavy dependencies at runtime which is probably a bit excessive -- Sent from a mobile, please excuse shitty formatting.
