Now that we've changed from linux_base[-rh7] to linux_base-8 as the default linux base we've entered dependency hell. :-( Previously print/acroread[5] depended only on linux_base. Now acroread depends on x11/linux-XFree86-libs, which depends on x11-fonts/linux-fontconfig, which depends on textproc/linux-expat, which finally depends on linux_base-8. Is this really what we want to do? Go from a single complete and comprehensive dependency to four? -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org)home | help
