Is it vital to use the texlive ports you get via portshaker or could you
switch to TEX_DEFAULT=texlive and use the texlive 2012 from official
ports (which has a few huge instead of many tiny packages)?

(If you want to switch, remove everything starting with texlive, check
out a fresh ports tree without portshaker, since there is at least one
port with the same name, and install print/texlive-full and maybe
print/texlive-docs.)
