It now takes multiple days to build them all and, unless there is a significant number of users that need a non-default, such as X11 and non-X11 versions. There is no reasonable way to build a large number of different options. If you really must have aspell, you really need to either build claws-mail from sources or, better, build it with poudriere. The former is fairly easy, but more fragile and inconsistencies can cause problems. Trying to make it work is easy. You will need a copy of the ports tree which can be cloned from the git repo. I would suggest that you first install ports-mgmt/portmaster (just a shell script with no dependencies) and "portmaster mail/claws-mail". It will list all required packages. (Be sure to select "aspell" in the config phase.) Enter 'n' to prevent them from all being built and then use pkg to install all of the listed ports except claws-mail, itself. Then "portmaster mail/claws-mail" will build and install claws-mail. It should work, but updates to other ports could require rebuilding it again. It's certainly not optimal, but should work. Try not to do this too often and conflicts in dependencies can be really ugly to resolve. -- Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: rkoberman@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683 --00000000000086983605c8dc3616--
