I'd like to commit this along with a change, that removes major numbers from LIB_DEPENDS. The current situation -- painful everywhere, but especially on ports with a large number of frequently-changing dependencies -- is that a lot of things end up rebuilt gratuitously... For example, someone may install mplayer today, update their ports tree tomorrow, and try to add vlc on Sunday. If the major number of any of the shared libraries (libfoo installed by graphics/foo), that both mplayer and vlc use, changes, addinging vlc will fail. Instead of simply building vlc, the user will have to: 1. Uninstall mplayer. 2. Uninstall foo. 3. Build a new version of foo. 4. Rebuild mplayer. 5. Rebuild vlc. Yet in almost all cases vlc does not really care, whether the libfoo is version 48 or 51... Forcing such a rebuild is completely unnecessary... -mi

Removing shared library tracking from VLC would be a very bad thing. When shlibs change numbers, so does their functionality. Sometimes they may be backwards compatible, but not always. Plus, with the way that VLC uses bleeding edge features willy nilly, and FreeBSDs librabries are sometimes lagging behind current, keeping these updated sometimes opens new features or better performance. I cannot approve this, shlib tracking is implemented in all of the ports tree for a reason. Port updating utilities generally provide a way to skip updating of specific ports if you so desire.
Responsible Changed From-To: mi->freebsd-ports-bugs Resolve the confusion: I am not the maintainer of this port.
State Changed From-To: feedback->closed portmgr rejects this patch
