Adam:
Obviously xfce is dependent on xpm, or the configure would not have
failed when looking for it. The question is why running make in
/usr/ports/x11-wm/xfce did not automatically make and install xpm. I
thought ports were supposed to install all the required dependencies.
I do see that the Makefile includes
USE_XPM=YES
However, looking in bsd.port.mk, all the occurrences of
.ifdefined {USE_XPM}
appear within .if ${XFREE86_VERSION} ==3
Thus if you have XFree86 4.x, the USE_XPM statement appears never to be
encountered.
I should note that I do not have X installed, however, on a 5.0 system
XFree86 4 is the assumed version in the bsd.port.mk
Could this somehow be the problem?
