Matthieu Volat <mazhe@alkumuna.eu> has asked gnome@FreeBSD.org for maintainer-feedback: Bug 193735: Allow to build graphics/evince without gnome support https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=193735 ------- Additional Comments from Matthieu Volat <mazhe@alkumuna.eu> Hello, As graphics/epdfview continue to rot, there is little choice for a relatively featured pdf viewer that do not sell a whole desktop environment. Evince was supposedly modified to allow this by making the heaviest gnome dependencies optional, but graphics/evince do not reflect this. Would it be possible to have such an option? In the past, it would have taken the form of a graphics/evince-lite slave port, but I had the impression those kind of port were more or less dropped. So here is a tentative for refactoring the evince makefile with a few gnome options that can be turned off (it would have been simpler to have a single GNOME option that turned on GCONF/GNOMEHELP/GNOMEKEYRING/NAUTILUS, but I thought that it would be more helpful to have more options). Of course, I suppose more refactoring is somehow needed and that it won't be committed as such, but it's a start.
