Dependencies made on provides/requires allows to handle dependencies in this: For example A can depend on nginx (whatever profile): so it requires "nginx" B can only depend on nginx-passenger: so it requires nginx-passenger nginx itself provides: nginx nginx-passenger provides: nginx and nginx-passenger that should do what you want unfortunatly that mean both nginx nginx-passenger both have one origin: www/nginx and this will break portupgrade/portmaster/tinderbox/poudriere (I can easily make poudriere friendly for that but I can't for the others). So most of the work is now on ports land (and maybe a couple of bug fixes in pkg) Best regards, Bapt [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iEYEARECAAYFAlUzkyUACgkQ8kTtMUmk6EyhnACePcqViIXH5vcnBh1NyQC2CofM rG4AoIxTOvXkgcDDEDICnCDgbWmnlhN4 =PPVO -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
