On =D7=A6=D7=D4=CF=D2=CF=CB 20 =CC=C9=D3=D4=CF=D0=C1=C4 2007, Yuri Pankov w= rote: =3D New xorg-server utilizes sysutils/hal for hardware autodetection, glib2= 0=20 =3D and cdrecord are dependencies of hal (can be turned off using=20 =3D WITHOUT_HAL). It also needs dbus, polkit and so on. Not sure about gtk. Thanks, Yuri. But I could trace the dependencies myself. My point was,=20 something is wrong if an unrelated utility such as cdrecord and a large (an= d=20 frequently changing) library such as glib are both /required/ to build the= =20 X-server. Maybe, the WITHOUT_HAL knob should be more visible... Maybe, it should not= =20 require cdrecord by default. I don't have a solution -- I'm just pointing out a problem... -mi
