WANT_ESOUND is set by the port to indicate that it wants to use ESOUND. To indicate you don't want the port to use ESOUND, you need to set WITHOUT_ESOUND=yes (or something similar). You'd put it in /etc/make.conf if you were me. This will only work with ports that respect the WANT/WITHOUT/WITH/HAVE variables for ESOUND. <mike -- Mike Meyer <mwm@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
