This may qualify the most "stupid" question of the day, but I need to ask since I haven't yet found the answer. On all of the production boxes, I am running 4.5-RELEASE p-20 and have been waiting to take the plunge on 4.7 after it settled down. Last night I installed 4.7-RELEASE from an ISO on a test box. While the install went smoothly, I noticed that a bunch of "XFree...." stuff is installed even though I don't use nor want to run an "X" server, if this is what "XFree" pertains to. Further, the first thing I did after the ISO install was to CVSup and then found that a number of ports "needed updating" all related to "XFree...". It's taking a HUGE amount of time to update things because of this unwanted XFree stuff. None of this XFree stuff is on my 4.5 boxes. First concern was I noticed the "f" version of cvsup-without-gui install took a looonnnnggg time. NOW FOR THE STUPID QUESTION: What did I do wrong that started this alavanche of XFree installs...?? If so, what do I do to stop it or correct it....??? Below is the list of ports installed during the ISO original install. I'm running: # portupgrade -Nai now and it's taking a hour to update the ports listed below. It's still early in the install process, so I can start over (and already have including placing "NO_X= true" in the make.conf file. I'm assuming I need to place a statement somewhere else to stop this "X" stuff. Any tips appreciated as I am concerned about the amount of wasted time consumed with "X" installs.
