The problem is that you should never set USE_* except inside a port Makefile. Setting that in /etc/make.conf gives every port a dependency on a version of apache (which requires perl, hence the problem building perl). The 'user settable' options are usually WITH_* or WITHOUT_*. I'm not 100% sure (and can't check right now), but there might be an option that you can (reasonably) safely set globally in /etc/make.conf to prefer apache 2.2, but I don't know what it is. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
