Negatory. There has been a desire to keep the tree X11 clean. But there's also a desire to keep packages intact. Jordan killed off useful functionality when he removed xditview. I don't see what the problem is. If you don't set the variable, it won't build. Paul From: Poul-Henning Kamp <phk@critter.tfs.com> Subject: Re: cvs commit: src/gnu/usr.bin/groff/xditview ... I agree 100% with Jordan. This was a significant step backwards. There has always been agreement that X11 code doesn't belong in our tree. Please revert this change.
