First we need to get rid of pkg-config, since 0.26 we can't boostrap it any= more because it depends on glib which depends on pkg-config. Hopefully we have a viable alternative. What I will do is : step 1/ introduce a new pkgconf port (https://github.com/nenolod/pkgconf) w= hich is 100% compatible with pkg-config and considers any incompatibility as a bug. along with this, I will introduce a new MACRO: http://people.freebsd.org/~bapt/USE_PKGCONFIG.diff USE_PKGCONFIG=3D yes or USE_PKGCONFIG=3D build will bring pkgconf only has a build dependency USE_PKGCONFIG=3D run will bring pkgconf has a run dependency (some things like ruby wrapper or p= erl wrapper) USE_PKGCONFIG=3D both=20 will bring both run and build deps. Why a MACRO, because some ports may need en environnement variable in CONFIGURE_ENV PKG_CONFIG=3Dpkgconf do work correctly. the USE_GNOME=3D pkgconfig will be automatically add USE_PKGCONFIG=3D both Yeah sorry for step one will keep pkgconf in both dependencies. This is necessary because too much ports rely on one of their deps bringing pkgconfig, and this concerns about 4k+ ports. All the gnome one (mostly), all the xorg one (xproto bring pkgconfig) most = of the gtk ones, most of things depending on libxml2 and curl, from what I have seen. step 2/ advertise the maintainers to stop using USE_GNOME=3D pkgconfig but = rather switch to USE_PKGCONFIG, and do it actively. setp 3/ drop USE_GNOME=3D pkgconfig from bsd.gnome.mk when switching to USE_PKGCONFIG becare full about the ports that depend on = your ports to make sure, it doesn't expect pkgconfig being brought by your port. regards, Bapt --FWibJpkbnkY6rrXF Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAlANuRoACgkQ8kTtMUmk6EwrJgCeP10vTMyeIrqBDEWhI0gKcylx k8gAoJAH5PwLLElC3DMHcWiTzL42OBv/ =+x3R -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --FWibJpkbnkY6rrXF--
