Awesome!

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 ideal 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 the fix to be done well. Again, any suggestions or alternative solutions are welcome. -- A.J.
