Hello, I am porting a piece of software (purple-plugin-pack) to FreeBSD. It contains numerous plugins for Pidgin all under one pack (over 50). They all compile, but I want to make it configurable which plugins are installed, but it makes no sense unless at least one plugin is set. So far I have the following: 8<========== snip ==========>8 OPTIONS_MULTI= plugins OPTIONS_MULTI_PLUGINS= ALBUM AUTOPROFILE AUTOREPLY AWAYNOTIFY BASH BIT \ ... 8<========== snip ==========>8 Which is fine and works as expected (at least one option must be selected). However, here is my dilemma. Some of the plugins provide additional protocols. I'd like to group them under their own section, since there's at least 5 or so, and it's logical for those who just want additional protocols without the other fluff. However, out of the entire pack, only one plugin needs to be enabled at all (including *or* excluding a protocol plugin). So, I am wondering what the "correct" way would be to go about ensuring at least one option out of two groups is selected. I hope I've managed to make sense here. -- Cheers, Elizabeth Myers
