When upgrading urlview port it wants to install firefox (totally useless and a waste of ressources on a screenless server). The makefile extract for it is .if defined(WITH_GECKO) USE_GECKO= firefox-devel firefox35 seamonkey .include "${PORTSDIR}/Mk/bsd.gecko.mk" .elif defined(WITH_SEAMONKEY) RUN_DEPENDS+= ${LOCALBASE}/lib/seamonkey/seamonkey-bin:${PORTSDIR}/www/seamonkey GECKO= seamonkey .else RUN_DEPENDS+= ${LOCALBASE}/lib/firefox3/firefox:${PORTSDIR}/www/firefox35 GECKO= firefox3 .endif I do not see why firfox should be a runtime dependency : I use urlview with w3m and it is completely sufficient. How-To-Repeat: go to /usr/ports/textproc/urlview and type make install

Hi, I must agree with Erwan, my server just started installing firefox and X and whatnot! ... And there are also non-firefox users out there ;) I attached a simple patch, it keeps the gecko.sh and attempts to "guess" the correct gecko browser anyway, this works with or without firefox actually installed so there really is no need to include firefox as a dependency ... Also, you can configure the browser in ~/.urlview, maybe fixing this so it supports the firefox arguments would be a better idea (Presumably the parenthesis are troubling?) would be a better solution IMO. In any case, please remove the firefox dependency!

obrien 2010-09-09 19:51:37 UTC FreeBSD ports repository Modified files: textproc/urlview Makefile Log: Rev 1.22 (PR 102954) was a bad idea. This port should not have any default dependencies as it causes too much trouble for folks using this port not with Firefox. 'pkg_add -r urlview' should not add X11 and Firefox to ones system.
