libX11 dependencies
I'm so sorry to annoy you with a question that might be stupid, but I'm not yet very experienced in managing software on the FreeBSD platform. During my weekly ports maintainance (I'm using the ports-mgmt/portmaster) I've noticed that the www/drupal port seems to require the lang/python25 now, and this dependency is due to the latest x11/libX11 version, which wants x11/xcb-proto and x11/libxcb ports, which bring me lang/python25. Since I read that the XCB option should have been removed from r1.8 of the pkg-plist file (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/x11/libX11/pkg-plist), I'm wondering if such dependency is still really needed. Thanks you very much for your invaluable commitment in maintaing this great operating system!

That was an option, now it is mandatory. So you can't avoid lang/python25 :) Thanks you very much for your invaluable commitment in maintaing this great operating system! ___ 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
