The question that comes up often is about graphics/gd, and hasn't been answered wrongly, you do need xbase for that. This question is about gd-*-no_x11 from www/php5/extensions, this is a different matter. The no_x11 flavour should not use freetype. This is a problem with the 4.0 package which was fixed in -current in November. As I see it, the options for a 4.0 user who wants to work around this problem are: - install xbase (the simplest way), - build a php5-gd no_x11 package on a box without X - move to current, > xbase IS required to be installed for some -no_x11 packages. If you know of another example, that's broken too and needs fixing one way or another.
