Hi!

First of all, I've read a hole punch of threads about the USE Flags and the user docs but no one could satisfy my question, so if I've missed one important don't be angry with me!

Question:
I'm running a server box with nfs samba ..... and I've set my USE properly, I think!

Code:

USE="-acpi acl -3dnow -arts -avi -encode -gif -gnome -gpm -gtk -imlib -jpeg -kde -mikmod -mmx -mpeg -oggvorbis -opengl -oss -png -qt -quicktime -sdl -spell -sse -X -xv x86 samba usb -pcmcia apm tcltk"


now I wanted to emerge ocaml with tcltk support for compiling my mldonkey! What happened: the whole xfree and related things wanted to get emerged too! Why that? what can I do against it? Do I need xfree for a pure console server maschine (I don't think so)!?

Thanx,
Georg

Code:

linux everything # env ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -vp mldonkey

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N   ] dev-lang/tcl-8.4.2-r1
[ebuild  N   ] x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r2  -3dfx -sse -mmx -3dnow -xml +truetype +nls -cjk -doc
[ebuild  N   ] dev-lang/tk-8.4.2-r1
[ebuild  N   ] dev-lang/ocaml-3.06-r1  +tcltk
[ebuild  N   ] net-p2p/mldonkey-2.5  -gtk

a few ebuilds a missing because they have allready been merged


As you could see in my post before I use "-X -kde -gtk and ..."!

using tcltk is needed for mldonkey to compile a part of it with ocaml (exactly ocaml with tcltk support is needed to compile a part of mldonkey)

So!?

Georg :?:


Forgot something!

Code:

linux everything # emerge -vp mldonkey

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N   ] x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r2  -3dfx -sse -mmx -3dnow -xml +truetype +nls -cjk -doc
[ebuild  N   ] dev-lang/tcl-8.3.4
[ebuild  N   ] dev-lang/tk-8.3.4-r1
[ebuild  N   ] dev-lang/ocaml-3.06  +tcltk
[ebuild  N   ] net-p2p/mldonkey-2.04_rc1  -gtk


To proof that it isn't the unstable 2.5 ebuild of mldonkey I've tried now to merge the stable mldonkey too!

forgive my ignorance,but is mldonkey text-based??
if so u can compile everithing(without xfree) with "--nodeps" option

//edit,if it's not text based then i presume it's about the same thing if u are trying to compile mozilla without X
//edit2
Code:
emerge -s mldonkey

It appears that tk requires X. You can't turn off a requirement, only optional support. This thread seems to support that.

i allways forgive! :D

it's else, it's daemon like! with a binary, web based, or telnet interface (accessable from everywhere allowed, over the net).

my problem isn't not to not now about the nodeps option, my problem is how to compile that thing with the minimum of packages needed to support telnet an web based interfaces!

does tcl tk work without xfree, the libs and packages?

the "webserver" for the web interface is a extra binary or script (I don't really know) but all in all there is no monitor attached to this server and there is no ssh x11 tunneling or else done!

Georg


added:

thanks for that hint!
but it doesn't solve my problem! I only have about 2G of space on the OS DISK (not partition) and I'm not willing to use more than 2G of space for a server only box with nfs, samba and a bit more! especially if there is no monitor and no x11 tunnel or else except a ssh text console or swat for samba administering.
