The first time you use 'make config-recursive' it may bring in an optional dependancy that uses a dialog box. 'make config-recursive' is not smart enough to check the new optional dependancy. Running 'make config-recursive' a second time will bring up the dialog boxes for theses new dependancies. So you just need to repeatedly run 'make config-recursive' until no new dialog boxes are displayed. Then after this, you won't have a problem, unless you remove /var/db/ports.
