For the base and xenocara libs, wouldn't it make sense to have some modules centralizing the version info (and even some dependencicies) so that instead of WANTLIB declaratons you coud have .include <libX11.dep.mk> .include <libc.dep.mk> or something similar? Then only one central fil would need to be updated when revisions changes. And even if libX11 gains new depencies, you would not be reqired to add the manually to a zillon of ports's Makefiles. -- Matthieu Herrb
