Like hrs already said: since this is a build dependency you can just write: BUILD_DEPENDS= convert:graphics/ImageMagick6 This does not install ImageMagick6 if 7 is installed. It will only install 6 if convert does not exist. It is a loose dependency. This is not the case for RUN_DEPENDS because dependencies in a package are currently specified using package names (including version). They would have to be specified using features where multiple packages can then provide a feature. port1: PROVIDES= feature1 feature2 port2: PROVIDES= feature2 port3: RUN_DEPENDS= feature2:category/port1 Then pkg could see if any installed packages provide feature2 and only install port1 by default. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
