I can only speak for myself, but I don't see DOCS as a global option. For some ports I want documentation, for others I don't, so I want the dialog to show up even if DOCS is the only option. There doesn't seem to be a clear cut line between global and per port options and different users have different opinions about it. Can you make it such that config-conditional suppresses the dialog if all options have been explicitly set or unset either through command line, make.conf or optionsfile? Or in other words only show the dialog if one of the options falls back to a default value (e.g. when a new option has been added to a port and that option has not been set globally). I think that would allow anyone to set/unset any option globally and not be bothered by dialogs without enforcing that view on everybody else. You wouldn't need GLOBAL_OPTIONS any more then. ------enig2GKXGFVTMFIHRWOPWAGXF Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.20 (FreeBSD) iF4EAREIAAYFAlGx4GwACgkQfoCS2CCgtiuS1QD+J34r3sh+4sOGdx5Xfkxvjm02 xZeePGGYRN/g00FspZ0A+wehp0aab87w/9WcYFnB8Bot3LfF8eRashwLg2tuKIpY =Llwi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------enig2GKXGFVTMFIHRWOPWAGXF--
