gcc is in base as cc(1). There are a metric ton of qt4 ports and they are not basic in that they are not required if you don't use KDE or its applications. > > I know, it may be caused by failed dependencies, copyright restrictions, > etc. But it's hard to imagive why they are missing for these two: no > copyright restrictions, and almost no dependencies. > > This unfortunately slows down many people. > Is there any solution to this problem? Maybe people just forget about > this build server and some minor fix wil help? It's a case of having space on the servers IIRC. Also some require too many options to be set at build time (probably the problem with qt). I know it's the reason why OO.o is not packaged - too many languages & other options. > > Yuri Regards, -- Frank Contact info: http://www.shute.org.uk/misc/contact.html _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
