Hi,
I'm creating a port of wb, which is similar to the Netscape port in that
it will just ftp the precompiled binary. wb needs ghostscript installed,
but we have 3 different ghostscript ports: "ghostscript", "ghostscript3"
and "ghostscript4". wb doesn't care which one, just needs gs.
Right now, my Makefile says
# XXX ghostscript, ghostscript3 or ghostscript4 will all do.
RUN_DEPENDS= gs:${PORTSDIR}/print/ghostscript4
I *think* this will allow any "gs" executable, but if there is none it
will install ghostscript4. I don't know about the package deal, though,
I suspect that if you are using packages and have a different ghostscript
installed you will run into trouble. Any ideas how to handle this?
Thanks,
Bill
