Awesome!  Automatic dependencies have been causing me grief for about a dec=
ade, so this makes me happy.

I'm not fond of my misc/gnome-components method either, so any alternative =
ideas are very welcome.  All I've done thus far is created a Makefile with =
an OPTIONS list for the 97 components from bsd.gnome.mk.

What do you suggest for a real fix/clean?  Based on your response, the idea=
l fix has at least two attributes:

1. No automatic dependencies.

2. An option to disable specific components.

I'm trying to get this issue resolved as quickly as possible, but I want th=
e fix to be done well.  Again, any suggestions or alternative solutions are=
 welcome.
