https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D250364 Bug ID: 250364 Summary: devel/glib20: make run-depend on python OPTIONal Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: desktop@FreeBSD.org Reporter: gahr@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(desktop@FreeBSD.org) Assignee: desktop@FreeBSD.org Created attachment 218756 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D218756&action= =3Dedit Patch I would like to make OPTIONal the run-dependency of glib20 on python, with a default that keeps the current status. The reason is that many packages dep= end on glib only for its shared libraries, and it is unconvenient to have to install 100MB of python just for that. If MAINTAINER agrees, there are two approaches: 1. just make the run-dependency optional This is what is currently implemented in the attached patch. The plist does= not change so it's still possible to install python later to run glib-genmarshal and friends. 2. make the run-dependency optional and skip the installation of anything t= hat relies on python Perhaps safer, perhaps overkill given that python continues to be a run-dependency by default and turning that off means you know what you are doing. However, if you prefer this approach, I'm prepared to implement it. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
