Yes on purpose because of the large hidden impact gnome@ team is working on getting rid of USE_GNOME= pkgconfig, x11@ will also look at it. maintainers are now highly recommended to switch to USE_PKGCONFIG the more switches are done on leaf ports the easier it will be for gnome@ and x11@ to fix their own usage of USE_GNOME= pkgconfig Lots applications are using pkg-config at build time, and not requesting directly the pkg-config dep, those are the priority imho regards, Bapt
