Without touching on any of the other issues, yes, indeed, (a) gtk v1 is abandonware and (b) vim-with-defaults is one of the last major consumers of gtk1. If I may be so bold, allow me to offer up an alternative. editors/vim -- fully functional console-only (no X11) editors/vim-lite -- stripped down version (again, no X11, perhaps even linked static for use within embedded systems) editors/vim-gui -- take your pick. X11 is implied. athena/motif widgets are pretty much dead, so unless there's a QT version floating around, GTK2. vim is the MASTER, vim-lite slave strips stuff out of vim, vim-gui adds stuff to vim. Might even be able to avoid the whole OPTIONS issue (which I'm purposefully not touching on here) with this kind of setup. -aDe _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
