Right

So with +server and +clamav_milter what do you do? I am now seeing the need for these ports:

clamav - base port, gets you cpam
clamav-server - depends on clamav but installs a startup item
clamav-clamav_milter - depends on clamav, but installs clamav_milter
clamav-server-milter - depends on clamav, gets you milter and the startup item

I need some guidance here, I am seeing this very quickly getting out of hand where there are ports with more than one variant.

The variants used descend through the dependency tree: If you install +milter on clamav-server, +milter will get used on clamav. At least, this is what I believe: Try it and find out.

If I need assp to depend on clam, and clam to have +server and +clam_av_milter, what do you suggest? * I do not need milter at this time, just wondering.

I am leaning on just not including the clamav as a variant for assp, but it is so logical to have it at the same time.

This should all follow from using the variants in the server port.


I am not sure i understand this:
port install assp
Within that port, assp will depend on clamav, but since I can not define a variant for clamav +server, I have to make a clamav-server port. Fine up to that point.

Now, what is I want clamav +server +clamav_milter available to the assp port? My port install command would be port install assp still, there would still be a call in there to clamav-server, where does the milter go in?

Thanks
