Specific example.. doing a portsnap and build of devel/subversion out of the box, you get: ===>>> The following actions will be taken if you choose to proceed: Install devel/subversion Install databases/sqlite3 Install devel/pkgconf Install devel/apr1 Install converters/libiconv Install devel/libtool Install databases/db42 Install databases/gdbm Install devel/gmake Install devel/gettext Install devel/autoconf Install devel/autoconf-wrapper Install devel/m4 Install lang/perl5.14 Install misc/help2man Install devel/p5-Locale-gettext Install devel/automake Install devel/automake-wrapper Install lang/python27 Install textproc/expat2 Install www/neon29 You can thin it down a bit by turning off a few bits.. neon->serf helps a little but not much. Trimming some runtime (vs buildtime) grandchildren like apr's gdbm/bdb modules trims some license dependencies. I'll update that list when the build is finished. -- Peter Wemm - pe...@wemm.org; pe...@freebsd.org; pe...@yahoo-inc.com; KI6FJV bitcoin:188ZjyYLFJiEheQZw4UtU27e2FMLmuRBUE _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
