Also in these case we used to just add slave ports with dependency-specific parts only, so you can build the main part without installing the dependency (e.g. you don't need to have python to install lcms, there's another port for python specific parts; you don't need x11/bash to install djvulibre). Simply adding dependencies isn't a solution in many cases. I didn't looked into this particulat port, but this one looks like one that wants separation if it has py/perl modules in distfile. --=20 Stanislav Sedov ST4096-RIPE --Signature=_Wed__29_Sep_2010_01_42_13_-0700__sNvaP89cf5KQwug Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJMovvpAAoJEL8lojEJL9nwhBIP/3EMvn9NQGpQ6QjQXFIv+C5M R5avauC4ElJLYSphBPEgAkrhwhAfrnR0z7wZ4OJFKPRGWmaKc/7KbsjTKa69TwkX 3EDD6lDsed9DQiVc2fi/1ARYN+4t9rrZbmwhC7BN+AIfK8pYjnjAfOKwlex62sOF obqqvaiLgNVst4CAQ0Gratjh+LRIPImrC0Ts6COim4QXP8aH3pGwjUnkt1dWBIDY BFmyUqMvwcMVje9JJbKS3wSearbBqs/LV7RM9xj+u+lfD4Waq2c1rLXAPAKyOawX JIpNRuhTulv2+Yvkv1xJn5zmVHF/9arqCIn3SHkW6VmVkH4TTiz8fSIInblWgTzc U1h9hvaqBdYB8HhQUGV5+50QwdU9dkJ3dpxOWjfwfzXYERw9LpQPnXfU5ZU6MCIj ydRFYFW19gcQxhhXaJvyx/GM1g+zJkgMD/Qtvd3qlvUvtvmCl6wYWfpGV2x/K/vR bXxbnRxLljYUDNEIr2FJQPMa5qD4MQU8i7bQLaSR3s1jO54EUOt2B/1FhUHSJr6Y 7TFKM9yiWhpjIMivMTeW3sKn+8xl/E8UM5WSYyz1g+kr4jh2+9soYQyEgez94OIz LLc9kcOYbFk4czKuJnUtKxGoSAGxh6RZWpRpnkKfbXpjfuTiXUGMbbw85ANZp1vT z6en8PkuHuiAkE8GZNvb =Lw6M -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Signature=_Wed__29_Sep_2010_01_42_13_-0700__sNvaP89cf5KQwug--
