I went to update my install of Bind9 and it wanted to install a lot o new things, including ghostscript (which I have been careful to keep off my system due to many remotely exploitable vulnerabilities and a lack of need). In fact, there were a lot of new packages it wanted to install which appear to all be depended on doxygen.
Were does this dependency on doxygen come from, and why does that then want to install ghostscript and tex?

I looked in the make config for bin912 and didn't see anything that implied doxygen was needed,
I went ahead and did postmaster -i bind912 and said no to Doxygen which meant the only things updated were bind, json, protobuff-c and protobuff. which is much more in line with what I was expecting.
However, during the compile process, doxygen, ghostscript, and the various tex packages were installed anyway.
What has changed in the build instructions for bind912?
