There is a need for a "minimum" install of a lot of packages.
Some dependencies are often optional, and can be unchecked by running
make config.
Such a 'minimum' install should probably be the default when coming in
as a dependency, as
there is an increasing tendency to configure things with all the bells
and whistles.
The bare minimum will never be the default. The default is what will
fit most people, so that they can use our packages out of the box.
Shouldn't all packages default to noX dependencies? If I am not mistaken
FreeBSD is predominantly a server-side system, with X running only
occasionally (I am running X but I compile all packages with poudriere).
I agree. Many ports have X and -nox11 (like ImageMagick-nox11 or
open-vm-tools-nox11) but there are still some without nox11 variant.
But X11 is not the only one dependency problem.
I think that dependency changes should be better tracked and examined
before commit changes to ports tree.
I am really tired of it. Now I realized that another port is
unconditionally pulling hand full of new X11 dependecies which where not
used before ant this was just PORTREVISION bump. Not new version with
new functionality.
When this will stop?
