Comment(by mta@…):
As I said in my original note, the things changed in
system_x11.extra.patch (including xeyes) are just things I added a
system_x11 variant to for no good reason. If you think that's a mistake
that's ok with me. The ports in system_x11.appdefault.patch did add stuff
to app-defaults.
If you don't want to add a system_x11 variant to these ports, then you
should remove them as dependents for other ports. Right now it's
impossible to install things like gnome-desktop, nautilus, evince, and
perhaps others since they all depend on xorg which depends on xorg-apps
which depends on all of these programs. As it is, you can't install
something like gnome-desktop if you've installed the X11 libraries with
the system_x11 variant.
