Expat in OpenBSD -current
hello misc@ today I installed a new computer with -current (10/16/2007) I did not select the X windows files from the install program because I do not need X I went to compile /usr/ports/editors/vim with FLAVOR=no_x11 huge during the build gettext complains about not having expat. after further investigation I found this: Log message: All ports are now using the libexpat that's shipped with xenocara. Add COMES_WITH=4.2 here. ok sturm@, steven@, matthieu@, naddy@ it would appear that expat has been removed from ports. so what is the correct move? Should I have installed xenocara anyway even if this computer only needs a console? any help is appreciated. Sam Fourman Jr.
