Toggling port dependencies
Hi: Some ports exists in multiple versions such as OpenLDAP, the most recent and recommended is 2.3, but some other ports depends on another version for example jabberd that requires 2.2. Some ports will let you choose which version to compile against but jabberd don't. How to I make a port compile against the installed version or a version of my choice? I know that it may fail, but I'd like to try.

You could try setting USE_OPENLDAP_VER=23 for the port. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Solved (I hope): Toggling port dependencies

Yes, OpenLDAP 2.3 conflicts with 2.2, but jabberd by default assumes 2.2 so the build fails. Then rather than downgrading OpenLDAP since 2.3 is the recommended I'd prefer to force jabberd to build against 2.3. I've seen many ports doing this, for example squid. Some announces how to select a particular version. I don't know if your hint work with all ports. I tried your advice and things compiled and installed without any problems - now the question is if it works ...

Actually I think I got this wrong; USE_OPENLDAP_VER will create spurious LDAP dependencies if set globally. It should have been WANT_OPENLDAP_VER=23 Dependencies on OpenLDAP are handled by the common ports makefiles. jabberd doesn't specify a version. I think it simply defaults to 2.2, even if 2.3 is installed. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
