phpMyAdmin only depends on X through one of the optional extensions:
php5-gd. If you disable the GD and PDF options in the configuration
dialogue you'll not need to install any X related dependencies. Or
you can rebuild graphics/gd using 'WITHOUT_X11=3Dyes' if you want to be
able to generate PDF of database schemas etc through phpMyAdmin.
Hmmm... as far as I can tell, gnome-config is not a run-time dependency
of phpMyAdmin even when compiled with all options enabled and with X11
support in the gd libraries. Either gnome-config is a build dependency
from somewhere way down the dependency tree (ie. only needed to build=20
something, not needed to run it) or you've got a misplaced 'USE_GNOME'
somewhere. In general, USE_FOO is for port maintainers only and shouldn'=
t
appear in /etc/make.conf or any other Makefile that gets generally includ=
ed
everywhere. Use WITH/WITHOUT_FOO in /etc/make.conf to indicate global
preferences. (Gentoo we ain't)
Cheers,
Matthew
