(I presume indirectly via gettext) IMO these are unnecessary. If you build gmake-3.79.1 manually from source it compiles fine without gettext. >How-To-Repeat: # pkg_add gmake-3.79.1_1.tgz pkg_add: could not find package libiconv-1.7_5 ! pkg_add: could not find package expat-1.95.2 ! pkg_add: could not find package gettext-0.11.1_3 ! >Fix: Perhaps this ./configure option: --with-included-gettext use the GNU gettext library included here >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
