I'm afraid this behavior (bogus unwanted building of manual) should be
properly fixed, instead of forcing users to pollute their systems with
I fully agree with you.
tons of essentially useless stuff. (I recall the similar problem with
mail/mutt and audio/jack, when one had to explicitly disable building of
documentation to avoid pulling crap like sgmlformat or doxygen.)
Your crap may be gold for someone else...
I'm happy we don't have a plist error anymore, bu maybe you can find a
way to patch this? I really don't want to
Install textproc/docbook-utils
Install print/jadetex
Install textproc/docbook-310
Install textproc/jade
Install textproc/p5-SGMLSpm
Install www/lynx
since I never use this manual.
Exactly. Carefully selected dependencies is one of the great things
about our Ports, and we should not lower the bar here. Of course
I don't. I fix the build until the problem is fixed properly. I'm not
happy about those build dependencies either.
documentation is nice thing to have, but not at the cost of half dozen
of weird packages I will not be able to recall what they are for and
how the hell did they end up on my system in the first place. Plus I
Remove all the leaf ports you didn't install yourself, and they will
be gone (in the case of claws-mail). This is just a build dependency,
not a run or lib dependency.
believe many find it easier to point their browser to WWW: page instead
of digging the docs from the filesystem.
Believing is nice, I believe in something too. The point is: it does
not matter what you or I belive. What matters is what will be done. I
will report the bug upstream. If I get the time to create a patch for
it myself, I will even include it in the bugreport. When it is fixed
properly, I will put the build dependency within proper options.
Bye,
Alexander.
