#31447: root uses software it doesn't declare dependencies on -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: mattiafrancescomoro@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Keywords: | Port: root -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Comment(by jonesc@…): Thanks for the report. Its true the configure script checks for the presences of a lot of libaries and I am not too surprised there might be some things it will find if installed and use, but the Portfile doesn't currently declare a dependency on. The ROOT configure script does provide options to disable support for various things, where that is possible. Some of these options are used, but maybe some are missing. I'll take a more careful look. If there are dependencies are are not manditory (i.e. the script doesn't fail if they are present) but there is no way to disable their use if they are, I will try and follow this up with the ROOT team. but for the moment the best solution would be just to declare a dependency in the Portfile, so the results are at least predictable...
