The package depend tree will be indentical because the package alwasy depends on ganglia-monitor-core which legitimatly depends on those libraries. Since all I care about in this case is that the libraries exist sufficiently to satisty configure I'd rather not use the signficantly inferior BUILD_DEPENDS mechanism which requires me to hardcode LOCALBASE in the search path. Now that I think of it, a better solution is probably to just delete those parts of the configure script when building this package. -- Brooks --jq0ap7NbKX2Kqbes Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFN34fRXY6L6fI4GtQRAlBRAKCtfefTpkZ4JZTO7gYFmpq68VuIWACgn5XR 5t7p7x3EHf+3YxxYK+4VLrU= =HA8h -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --jq0ap7NbKX2Kqbes--
