Hi folks,

I've just noticed that though galeon2 and epiphany are gtk2
applications, they depends on mozilla-headers. And the first step of the
build process of this port is to configure mozilla, which depends on
orbit and gtk12. As these dependencies are libs dependencies and not
runtime dependencies, if they are not detected at the configure stage,
they will be installed. Even if mozilla-headers doesn't depend on them.

I may be of the fussy kind, but I wanted to know if I could make a gtk12
free system. I modified the www/mozilla-headers Makefile so that it used
mozilla-gtk2 and everything went well (and still works well). So I
wanted to know if it would be possible to make a mozilla-gtk2-headers
(meta)port on which galeon2 and epiphany would rely ? 

Best regards,
Vincent
