According to David Chisnall on Thu, May 29, 2014 at 10:19:41AM +0100: > We can probably do a bit better by looking at the complete dependency graph and removing any ports that have unconditional dependencies on X. For a headless server, there's no reason to build any of the kde-* or gnome-* ports or, indeed, X itself. I suspect that we could easily trim 2/3 of the build time by omitting ports that have a GUI, GUI toolkits, and so on. May I disagree? The only thing you don't need on an headless server is X itself. I might want to run firefox on that server, the display taken into account in the client machine (e.g. through ssh -X). Or did I missed something? -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! -=- roberto_at_keltia.net In memoriam to Ondine, our 2nd child: http://ondine.keltia.net/Received on Mon Jun 02 2014 - 13:15:30 UTC
