Re: Ports requiring X11 on Leopard

Michael Franz:

Also, which is better to use: lib:libX11:XFree86 or port:xorg-libX11 ?

The first version is better (lib:), because then one can use a system version of X11 (such as Apple's X11.app) instead of having to install either of the "XFree86" or "xorg*" ports... Currently GCC and X11 are on the list of exceptions where using the system versions is generally recommended over building a new version from ports (unless somehow needed) --anders
