No. These are very important. They tell you when optional support has
been added for a port. As for pkg_version, the current solution is to
add slave makefiles for all of the various option based ports (not just
the GNOME/GTK+ ones, but also the i18n ones, the mysql ones, the x11
ones...). A more offical route would be to remove the -'s from all of
the ports which are not supposed to have them in their names (there are
a bunch, and have pkg_version only compare the bit after the first - and
before the second (one only before the second if the first does not
exist), with the version number tacked on the end.
For now - define WITHOUT_ALL in /etc/make.conf and you won't see any
problems.
Regards,
-Jeremy
