Otherwise you'll end up building the port with stale data. - Pieter de Goeje ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Regards Chris I'm not entierly sure, but i think you have to provide -DWITHOUT_X11, no space between D and the rest. That's how i specify make options anyway. AS others suggested, if you never intend to run a X11-server, setting WITHOUT_X11=yes in make.conf is propablyu better, then you don't have to worry at all about X being installed if there is a option not to.

Hello, we have the following lines in the /etc/make.conf of our non-X11 servers: # no support for X Windows on this server WITHOUT_X11=yes works fine with the mtr port.

If you've no X and no intention to build anything with X support, then in /etc/make.conf put this: WITHOUT_X11=yes You'll then get an mtr with no X support (I know, I've just built it from ports this morning on a non X server - it was dead easy) reuben ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
