I have currently become a little irritated with the dependency
not found issue when using Xpm based ports with XFree86-4. As well,
a grep xpm /usr/ports/INDEX | wc shows 413 ports that require Xpm
libraries.
Would it seem prudent to add a USE_XPM to bsd.port.mk to make this
easier? As well, it would then seem to have a make.conf entry for those
of us who do use XFree86-4 for something like USE_XFREE86_4 which both
deals with depending on /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-4 and eliminates xpm
specific dependencies when using XFree86-4.
I have tested this on xemacs21 and so far it seems to function as
expected. I have a patch for bsd.port.mk that I can submit to pr if that
is the way to get a committer to ponder the change. For any ports that do
not appear to work with version 4.x, an if defined(USE_XFREE86_4) BROKEN=
could deal with that (that seemed to be the trend in other ports...).
Anyone else think this is a good idea?
Anyone ever note that comment above the USE_XLIB line that doesn't
make any sense in regards to the actual effect the variables have????
