	this is a copy of the following message :

	looking at the bento errorlogs will open your eyes ;)

	http://bento.freebsd.org/errorlogs/4-full-logs/xmms-1.2.5_1.log

	xmms possible names are xmms, xmms-esound and xmms-gnome.

	since WITH_GNOME isn't used at bento build time, it cannot be xmms-gnome.
	WITH_ESOUND seems to be defined somewhere (/etc/make.conf I suppose), so
	xmms is built w/ esound support ans is named xmms-esound instead of
	xmms (w/o esound support). and xmms-esound exists in the pre-build
	packages.

	about gnome ans derivated, I've just understand why gnome depends
	on sawfish-gnome while only sawfish lives as a pre-build package.
	see the following URL for details :

	http://bento.freebsd.org/errorlogs/4-full-logs/gnome-1.4.1b2.log

	gnome build install sawfish cleanly but record sawfish-gnome as
	a dependence. same assertion about rep-gtk vs. rep-gtk-gnome.
	IMHO, this is not fair :^)

	would it be possible to build every packages w/ different options ?
	such as running /usr/ports/Tools/portbuild/scripts/portbuild or
	whatever w/ WITH_ALL, then WITH_GNOME, then WITH_ESOUND, etc. ?
	since package naming depend these variables...

	CC -gnome
>How-To-Repeat:
	pkg_add -r gnome
	which depends on sawfish-gnome which doesn't exists on the
	FreeBSD repository while sawfish exists...

	no fix available yet.
