M. Ratte-Boulianne,[[br]]
Regarding your proposed addition of gconf to the depends_lib section of
the Portfile, the dependency will not be added for the following
reason:[[br]]libsoup, which is already in depends_lib, depends upon
libproxy which in turn depends upon gconf.[[br]]The addition of an
explicit library dependency on gconf would be
redundant.[[br]][[br]]Regarding your proposed variant, I would like to
know why such a variant would benefit the userbase at large.[[br]]I try to
make the ports I maintain depend upon external libraries which are enabled
by default (i.e. dependencies with --without-foo or --disable-foo
configure flags).[[br]]Your suggestion of a variant which does not depend
on several free, open-source libraries confuses me.[[br]]If you can
demonstrate a case in which such a variant would benefit other users I
would take no exception to adding your variant to the distributed
Portfile.[[br]]I look forward to discussing this with you so that we may
update the Portfile and close this ticket.[[br]]Cheers,[[br]]Ryan
