https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=247940 --- Comment #7 from Michael Osipov <michael.osipov@siemens.com> --- (In reply to Joseph Mingrone from comment #5) This I have partially assumed, but there is still room for improvement even if it cannnot be fully generalized. Consider that we have gssapi=base|mit|heimdal which can first define the OPTIONS and their descriptions, much like with X11 AND the options can globally be preset in make.conf and all ports follow suit the way they think is right. I have plenty of ports which should have MIT Kerberos, instead of doing gssapi=mit, I need to touch every single options file. I don't explicitly strive to set the exact same flags for the every Kerberos flavor to all ports, but pull up that flavor decision globally. At least these I need to touch instead of setting it globally. Yet another benefit could be that if gssapi=base is the default, all default packages provided by FreeBSD.org would link against base Heimdal. Those, like me, who need something else can use ports. dns/bind-tools ftp/curl security/cyrus-sasl2-gssapi sysutils/msktutil www/serf databases/postgresql13-server www/mod_auth_gssapi security/py-gssapi At least some of them are automatic dependencies which I still need to document because I need to provide an options file in /var/db/ports. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
