Hi Chuck, I also prefer installing ports with the dependencies they really really need - or - the only dependencies I need. And I don't like it too when something gets installed by "force" I don't really need, and which is not needed by the port for building too (just a nice to have). And you know how to change things like you want? Change the things like you think they should be (adding WITHOUT_* knobs to prevent installing some dependencies), test that change well and then do a send-pr for the explicit port you want to be changed. I wasn't able to find any problem reports written by you, but maybe my search was just wrong. -- Oliver Lehmann http://www.pofo.de/ http://wishlist.ans-netz.de/
