Hmm. I'm not that knowledgeable with pear yet, but I think it should be
possible to use pear without Apache.
Also, pear seems to be only used for the web front end, which isn't
necessary at all for a working TB installation (as you said).

Steve Wills sent my a mail today and also suggested to get rid of the
Apache dependency, or better, to create perhaps two ports, the real
tinderbox (tc, tinderbuild, tinderd), and the tinderbox-web (www-exp
directory, Apache dependency etc).
I really would like to try this road.

Another thing I'd really like to work on is improving both the port
installation instructions, as well as tinderbox documentation.=20
That implies installing the manpages to the correct locations, etc.

Regards,
Andreas

PS: I'm going to work on these parts as soon as I finish my bachelor's
thesis (12 days from now). :)
