* From: charon@freethought.org * Why is it that http://www.freebsd.org/ports/ no longer lists the huge * number of dependencies that apsfilter has? All it lists are bzip2-0.9.5d * and recode-3.4, but apsfilter still needs all the other stuff (see * /usr/ports/print/apsfilter/scripts/configure) to work. * * Because my network card isn't supported under freebsd, I have to download * all the dependencies in WinNT and then reboot to FreeBSD, so I have to have * _everything_ right or else I have to reboot just to dl another file. When * the dependency lists are FUBAR, this make life very difficult... Yikes. That is because apsfilter tries to build dependency lists on the fly in Makefile.inc. Since it's built from scripts/configure, it won't show up if you do a "make index" on a clean ports tree (as I do). Andreas, please move the batch stuff into Makefile the proper (just protect it with ".if defined(BATCH)") and delete them from scripts/configure, so they will show up in INDEX.
