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. Um, how's that supposed to work for packages? ;) Satoshi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
