[root@ravage /usr/ports/www/bacula-web]# make fetch
This port requires the Apache Module or the CGI version of PHP, but you have
already installed a PHP port without them.
*** Error code 1

This is on a dedicated fetch/NFS server.  It's not supposed to have
mod_php installed.  It would be pretty roundabout for me to install it
just for the purpose of fetching a package.

The machines that mount the ports tree via NFS shares off this do not
have any access to the Internet for security reasons.  Thus we use this
machine to fetch packages into /usr/ports/distfiles, then we can build
them on the secured systems.

It would make life easier if "make fetch" and "make fetch-recursive"
could ignore these kinds of dependency errors.  It seems to me that
"make fetch*" should _never_ fail because of dependencies.
