The ports tree tries to provide packages usable by most.

Obviously dbus is needed, since by default claws-mail links against it. Even if you untarred the package and installed claws manually, you wouldn't be able to run it. > Below are info about the systm Im using, > if you need more, please tell me Looks like you have packages that depend on dbus, but dbus doesn't appear in the list you provide. That kind of custom setup isn't supported. You'd better reconsider the reasons why you do not want dbus installed in the first place. -- jca | PGP : 0x1524E7EE / 5135 92C1 AD36 5293 2BDF DDCC 0DFA 74AE 1524 E7EE
