The following reply was made to PR ports/111249; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Eric P. Scott" <eps+pcmt0704@ana.com> To: bug-followup@freebsd.org Cc: Subject: Re: ports/111249: graphics/xfig: upgrade to version 3.2.5 Date: Wed, 4 Apr 2007 21:45:47 -0700 (PDT) A note on "stealth dependencies" -- xfig originally used acroread and netscape as its PDF viewer and web browser. My patches change the defaults to xpdf and firefox. These are only used to read documents on the Help menu; they are not required for normal operation, so I have not listed either one as a run dependency. End-users can override these values by specifying the appropriate X Resources, e.g. through $HOME/.Xdefaults or xrdb. For example, Fig.browser: seamonkey %f (Note that FreeBSD's wrapper scripts eliminate the need to use the -remote construct present in the app-defaults file.)
