I wasn't the original person "bitching" about ff2/ff3. and, you seem to have missed the point made by another user, who pointed out the fact there are many ports that are no longer maintained upstream that happily exist in ports. >> I spoke up about cramming crap-load of needless dependencies into >> ports w/o giving the end user a choice in the matter (e.g., building >> gimp with python, etc.).

What the hell does that even mean? It's the third time you've said that in this thread alone: "are you going to maintain it?" Having a passive-aggressive moment are we? Can't counter logic so unless you have it your way you threaten "to take your toys and leave the sandbox?" I've already accepted the explanation of build-time for packages for not having FLAVORS for gimp, etc. It is how it is. But, there is no good excuse for you to lash out and throw a hissy fit because someone said something you don't agree with; especially when they have a valid point. --patrick
