>Description:
When running "make config" on audio/mp3info it gives 1 option (which is set by default) for GTK2. If you uncheck the option and select "OK", then run "make config" again, it is checked again.

When you run "make install", it again brings up the dialog and if you un-check GTK2 (again), it will install without building GTK2.


I ran across this when building an application which depends on audio/mp3info and was trying to prevent all the X libraries from installing. I ran "make config-recursive" in the parent package. When I then noticed that the X libraries will still listed in "make missing", I ran "make config-recursive" again and audio/mp3info is the only package who's dialog came up the second time (there were many the first time).
>How-To-Repeat:
$ cd /usr/ports/audio/mp3info
$ make config
uncheck "GTK2"
$ make config
notice that it is set again!
