Hello,

Thanks to all for the replies.

Wich is the best way to manage conflictive options inside the OPTIONS
variable?

For example, I have three options: SERVER, X11 and CURSES. SERVER means
the program will not be built with a user interface. X11 and CURSES
(the ncurses library) are the two possible user interfaces. So each
conflicts with the other two. Is the following adequate to handle it?
Will the port store the bad configuration in
/var/db/ports/<portname>/options?

===================================================================

OPTIONS=	SERVER "Server mode (no GUI)" off \
		X11 "X11 user interface" on \
		CURSES "console user interface" off \

# This port has a BSD Makefile (no configure) and the options are
# enabled/disabled with -D in CFLAGS (I tried to put it in CPPFLAGS but
# the Makefile defines its own rules; it does not use the predefined
# ones that include ${CPPFLAGS}).
# The variable "LIB" is used inside the final linking rule (inside the
# Makefile).

.include <bsd.port.pre.mk>

.if defined(WITH_SERVER) && (defined(WITH_X11) || defined(WITH_CURSES))
IGNORE=		Conflicting options: WITH_SERVER + WITH_X11/WITH_CURSES
.endif

.if defined(WITH_SERVER)
MAKE_ARGS+=	CFLAGS+="-DSERVER"
.endif

.if !defined(WITH_SERVER)

.if defined(WITH_X11) && defined(WITH_CURSES)
IGNORE=		Conflicting options WITH_X11 + WITH_CURSES
.endif

.if defined(WITH_X11)
USE_XLIB=	yes
MAKE_ARGS+=	CFLAGS+="-DXWINGRAPHX -I${X11BASE}/include"
MAKE_ARGS+=	LIB+="-L${X11BASE}/lib -lX11"
.endif

.if defined(WITH_CURSES)
MAKE_ARGS+=	CFLAGS+="-DGRAPHX"
MAKE_ARGS+=	LIB+="-lcurses"
.endif

.endif

.include <bsd.port.post.mk>

Thanks and Best Regards,
