I would suspect the former. linux_base should not be poluted with application specific kludges. In principle it's still the minimal subset of packages that get installed for a simple Red Hat installation. The addition of the one or two X packages was mainly done because we didn't want to make a port out of them... Assuming for a moment that the issue is important: I can see that kdelibs2 is not the right place as well, so maybe we should create a special linux_x11 port after all in that case. Let's see how this evolves... -- Marcel Moolenaar mail: marcel@cup.hp.com / marcel@FreeBSD.org tel: (408) 447-4222 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
