Comment (by egall@…):
> is a great feature that sets MacPorts apart from Fink (unless they have
added this in the last year)
The way Fink handles it is that their regular packages support X when
relevant, and then they also have "`nox`" versions of those packages that
remove X support, which conflict with the regular versions of those
packages. (This confused me for a while, as I thought that "`nox`" was
pronounced "knocks" at first, but now I'm pretty sure it's actually "No
X"...) To put it in MacPorts terms, they use the equivalent of conflicting
sub-ports to determine X support, while MacPorts uses variants.
