The following reply was made to PR ports/163807; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "A.J. Kehoe IV (Nanoman)" <aE7qL1CN@nanoman.ca> To: rm@FreeBSD.org Cc: gnome@freebsd.org, bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: ports/163807: print/libgnomeprint CUPS Option Patch Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2012 11:33:01 -0400 (EDT) > Synopsis: print/libgnomeprint CUPS Option Patch > > State-Changed-From-To: open->closed > State-Changed-By: rm > State-Changed-When: Sun Jan 8 18:21:41 UTC 2012 > State-Changed-Why: > Closed by submitter's request > > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=163807 Please resurrect this PR. It seems that, despite what I was led to believe, FreeBSD doesn't actually have a system for handling automatic dependencies. This topic is now covered in the FreeBSD Porter's Handbook under "Problems Caused by Automatic Dependencies": http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/makefile-depend.html#AEN2421 The print/libgnomeprint Makefile hasn't changed since before this PR was opened, so the patch I submitted can be committed without modification. My thanks to everybody who gave me feedback regarding this issue, especially the FreeBSD Ports Management Team and Warren Block.
