-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 >> (04.20.2003 @ 1519 PST): Doug Barton said, in 2.0K: << > I'm talking about apps which use gtk that don't use any part of gnome. > There seems to be a common misconception that gtk is part of gnome.

USE_GNOME= gtk12 won't drag anything else into the mix except for glib12, which is required for gtk12 anyway. USE_GTK is just an alias for USE_GNOME= gtk12. > My point here is simply that subsuming gtk under gnome forces non-gnome > ports to drive a screw with a jackhammer, and that type of design is > flawed from the start. What jackhammer? The bsd.gnome.mk include file? That gets dragged in regardless of USE_GNOME or USE_GTK. # Adam - -- Adam Weinberger vectors.cx >> adam@vectors.cx FreeBSD.org << adamw@FreeBSD.ORG #vim:set ts=8: 8-char tabs prevent tooth decay. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE+ox3+o8KM2ULHQ/0RApqsAJ9k4SZTBpMDLCCgxsXKdRqcQ892cACfQNPI C7iwwTyg5U2vree1q7vizG8= =WLD+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
