Correct.

No, the result is exactly the same.

Mel, thanks for the script. What bothers me, however, is that I've
checked the Makefile and didn't find any reference to xorg/x11
libraries - the only dependencies listed in textproc/docbook-to-man
are:
RUN_DEPENDS= nsgmls:${PORTSDIR}/textproc/jade
(no xorg-libraries dependency there)
RUN_DEPENDS+= ${LOCALBASE}/share/sgml/docbook:${PORTSDIR}/textproc/docbook
Even worse,
egrep -ri "(xorg|x11)" *
in /usr/ports/textproc/docbook-to-man returns zero matches.
The point is, I really don't have a clue where docbook-to-man pulls
that xorg-libraries dependency from. I'd appreciate any pointers in
the proper direction...
P.S. On a rambling note, it seems docbook-to-man is used just to
convert the sgml help files to man format. Installing half of the xorg
libraries for a bit of text processing seems like a big overkill given
that logcheck being installed is practically a shell script. In fact,
I pulled the source directly and tried to compile it myself, but
FreeBSD is missing liblockfile library to properly build it (probably
the reason port has the dependency on procmail/lock).
Thanks,
