Your best bet is to figure out which dependencies each of the option
adds (by looking through the Makefile). This is usually pretty simple
to do as you have constructs such as if defined(WITH_X) require some
other port. You can then look at the pkg-desc file for each dependency
and decide if you need that software installed. I don't think there is
a better way at this time.
