Does it really have any sense to have mysql-client as dependency in case of WITHOUT_PHP_DEPENDS=yes defined? Then it results in this dependency: ~/# pkg_info -rR phpMyAdmin-3.1.5 Information for phpMyAdmin-3.1.5: Depends on: Dependency: mysql-client-5.0.81 And it seems useless to me. I expect to use mysql-client as dependency only in case where php5-mysql or php5-mysqli is listed as dependency. Then these PHP extensions will require mysql-client as their own dependency. Or am I wrong? (what I need is some knob to install PHP webapplications, like phpMyAdmin in this case, without any recorded dependencies, as I would like to maintain servervices applications separately) Miroslav Lachman
