Hi This is mainly to Satoshi, et al. Is there any way to provide a mechanism such that a port may conditionally move on to making another port after it is finished? Something like a POST_DEPENDS item that'll generally be built up due to WITH_CONTRIB, &c. variables. This would allow ports, like for example qmail, to offer a menu (using my pdlg mechanism, or another) of options for addons that might be useful - like qmailcontrib, qmailanalog, ezmlm, &c. I'm not sure whether this is the way things should go, but I was just wondering what people think.
