Ive wanted to ask why the option of vim port has not yet been handed

WITH_OPTIONS=yes in make.conf (or WITH_VIM_OPTIONS=yes). Life without

Because the maintainer of the vim port has a dislike for the OPTIONS
framework.



I expected to hear that just so happened historically. Тext question I
ask only to satisfy my interest. What OPTIONS framework basically can
someone not like it?
Цhat are the disadvantages compared to " grep define
/usr/ports/<category>/<portname>/Makefile "? Maybe the other of
thousand maintainrs something not know about it?

bapt@ made a proposal to improve the OPTION framework and it will be reviewed by portmgr@ soon.

This will include a improvment that obrien@ disliked much : when you have WITHOUT_NLS=true in your /etc/make.conf any port that use OPTIONS framework will not honour this knob and this is obviously painful.

The bapt@ patch correct this, so the the new OPTION framework will read these KNOBS (but of course there is more coming)

Cheers,
