Description Anton Berezin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2005-04-12 14:00:51 UTC
Sometimes it is easier to depend on a particular package rather than on
a file installed by that package.  Furthermore, sometimes it is useful
to be able to specify the minimum required version of the dependant
package.

Fix: With the patch below, it is possible to say, for example,

BUILD_DEPENDS=	p5-Tree-Simple>=1.12:${PORTSDIR}/devel/p5-Tree-Simple

The patch does not affect dependencies specified in the "usual" way.
