No. The problem with ignoring build dependencies is that static libraries would be listed as build dependencies, but static linking against a library may affect the license. Of course, most build dependencies don't even provide libraries, so they should be excluded from this check. To do that, set "installs_libs no" in the yelp-tools Portfile. If yelp-tools installs libraries but you manually determined that empathy does not link against them, use "license_noconflict yelp-tools" (possibly with set, not sure about that atm) in the empathy Portfile. -- Clemens Lang _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
