And yet, there's a lot of x11 packages installed. I'd like to find out what packages depend on the many x11 packages that = are installed. I know that quiet a few are under apache25, despite there = being no mention of x11 in make config: =E2=80=A6www/apache24/# make WITHOUT_X11=3Dyes NOPORTDOCS=3Dyes = NOPORTEXAMPLES=3Dyes all-depends-list | grep x11 /usr/ports/x11/xcb-util-renderutil /usr/ports/x11/libxcb /usr/ports/x11/xcb-proto /usr/ports/x11/libXau /usr/ports/x11/xorgproto /usr/ports/x11/libXdmcp /usr/ports/x11/xcb-util /usr/ports/x11/pixman /usr/ports/x11/libX11 /usr/ports/x11/xtrans /usr/ports/x11/libXext /usr/ports/x11/libXrender /usr/ports/x11-fonts/fontconfig /usr/ports/x11/libXdamage /usr/ports/x11/libXfixes /usr/ports/x11/libxshmfence /usr/ports/x11/libXxf86vm /usr/ports/x11/libXi /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/libXt /usr/ports/x11/libSM /usr/ports/x11/libICE /usr/ports/x11/libXtst /usr/ports/x11-fonts/dejavu /usr/ports/x11-fonts/mkfontdir /usr/ports/x11-fonts/mkfontscale /usr/ports/x11-fonts/libfontenc So, I'd like to figure out which features (make config toggles) are = responsible for these requirements so i can see if they are things that = can be disabled. For example, one thing listed is libX11, so I do pkg info -r libX11 libX11-1.6.6_1,1: gdk-pixbuf2-2.36.11 libXdamage-1.1.4_4 libXxf86vm-1.1.4_2 mesa-libs-18.1.5 cairo-1.14.8_2,2 libXcomposite-0.4.4_4,1 libXcursor-1.1.15_1 libXinerama-1.1.4_1,1 libXrandr-1.5.1_1 gtk-update-icon-cache-2.24.32 libXpm-3.5.12_1 gtk2-2.24.32 vim-8.1.0342 libXt-1.1.5_2,1 libXext-1.3.3_3,1 libXfixes-5.0.3_2 libXi-1.7.9_2,1 libXrender-0.9.10_2 libXtst-1.2.3_2 openjdk8-8.181.13 openjdk-7.161.01,1 So now I have to go through each of those to see which one might be = required by apach24. Within a coupe of steps you are checking a hundred = packages. Is there som way to say "I want to search everything that requires = libx11 all the way up the tree of dependencies until we match apache24, = then show me that chain. (so, for example, if apache24 is set to require libfoo99 and libfoo99 = requires bobsport and bobsport requires libXfoo which requires libx11 I get: apache24 <=3D libfoo99 <=3D bobsport <=3D libXfoo <=3D libx11 when I search for something like "libx11 in apache24" --=20 Penny, I'm a physicist. I have a working knowledge of the entire universe and everything it contains.
