Hi folks,

For those who gets frustrated by removal of flexibility and
unconditional dependencies introduction (e.g.,
a5ad594928348358d169ce8703788a0976d40f5d,
f57f5533927184a5913d160c3d7606b13d83b47b) into subj, it would be nice
if you are willing to review
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=296856 and share
your thoughts there if any. I, personally, strictly oppose the
installation of AMD"gpu"-related stuff, especially when machine
physically has only Intel and/or NVIDIA GPU installed. Not to mention
reducing customizability is just a bad thing.

P.S.: Even better if you remember the story with editors/vim and obrien@.
