I think it would be a good solution. I see no reason to have separate directories for X- and not-X related ports. Furthermore, it will reduce the number of %%X11BASE%%-like substitutions in ports distfiles to work correctly, and number of mtree files we should respect. I've spent a long time fixing ports to respect X11BASE/LOCALBASE/CFLAGS/ PREFIX etc, and it seems, unfortunately, that only a little number of them honor them properly (at least almost all ruby ports don't because of bsd.ruby.mk). It seems to be a very tedious and monotonic work. :-( Thus, reducing number of variables to respect should simplify the task. --=20 Stanislav Sedov MBSD labs, Inc. <ssedov@mbsd.msk.ru> =F2=CF=D3=D3=C9=D1, =ED=CF=D3=CB=D7=C1 http://mbsd.msk.ru -------------------------------------------------------------------- If the facts don't fit the theory, change the facts. -- A.
