Increase in the number of ports: upgrade xorg to 7.2...



Hi,

I recently upgraded to xorg 7.2 by doing a complete portupgrade. I run
FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE, with the default kernel, and default settings.
Initially I had about 230 packages installed, and after the upgrade
the number has gone up to 450! Lot of these seem to be X related
packages.

Does xorg 7.2 have more dependencies, and hence so many ports were installed?
