System: FreeBSD stealth.jnielsen.net 6.2-STABLE FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE #1: Tue Jan 23 21:51:42 EST 2007 john@stealth.jnielsen.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/STEALTH i386
>Description:
x11-wm/xfce4-desktop will build and install without installing fam
(or gamin), but will then fail to run if it can't find libfam.
>How-To-Repeat:
Build e.g. the xorg metaport and the xfce4 metaport on a system with
no other ports installed. Run startxfce4 in an X session. Notice that xfdesktop
fails to appear. Error message (on the virtual terminal you ran startx from,
if any) indicates that it couldn't find libfam.
>Fix:
Something along the lines of:
LIB_DEPENDS+= fam.0:${PORTSDIR}/devel/gamin
(or just add a line to the exising LIB_DEPENDS entry) in the port's
Makefile.
