++ 03/10/01 09:03 -0400 - David David: | | I'm working on porting a KDE File Manager at the moment: | http://krusader.sourceforge.net , and the program is capable of using | a wide array of archivering program's after it's installed , but it | does not require these programs to build or too run itself. | | Is it best too add these as dependacies in the Makefile and install | them when the port is installed, or put a description in pkg-descr or | pkg-message making people aware of there use? | | I'm thinking it would be best too just have a message about them | instead of installing them with the port, considering there 8 | different archivers that it can use, and i figure not everyone will | have use for all 8 of them, leaving them too install the one's they | prefer. I'd tend to agree with you here, it's probably best to mention the program is only useful if those archiver ports are installed. -pete -- Pete Fritchman [petef@(databits.net|freebsd.org|csh.rit.edu)] finger petef@databits.net for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
