Hello,

Since today I have a strange error occuring on my system : FreeBSD
5.5-RELEASE-p9

---> Upgrading 'gettext-0.16.1_1' to 'gettext-0.16.1_3' (devel/
gettext)
---> Building '/usr/ports/devel/gettext'
On FreeBSD before 6.2 ports system unfortunately can not set
default X11BASE by itself so please help it a bit by setting
X11BASE=${LOCALBASE} in make.conf.
On the other hand, if you do wish to use non-default X11BASE,
please set variable USE_NONDEFAULT_X11BASE.
*** Error code 1

OK, so follow the instructions.

These errors are occuring thaugh I have specified in my make.conf file :

WITHOUT_X11=yes

That will not prevent X from being installed, it is an optional
directive that some ports may use to disable X support if it is an
available alternative. It is up to you to make sure that you do not
request installation of a port that requires X.
