The solution with detecting if aspell is available in the system during pkgmk was never preffered (it is in close relationship with gentoo use flags, makes pkgfile more complicated). The pidgin buildsystem's behaviuour is correct, if the aspell is available then add support for the spell checking, if it isn't then die with error message. That's why it needs to be decided by the user not a scipt. Since I want to provide sane defaults for everyone using contrib/pidgin it needs to be decided whether we want spell check support or not. 2014-02-10 10:23 GMT+01:00 Danny Rawlins <monster.romster@gmail.com>:

This is not hard guys. CRUX is not meant to "hand hold" you through every step of the process :) If you wanted a distro that does that there's Ubuntu, Arch, etc, etc :)
IHMO Ports have always been (unwritten rule?) the bare minimum for the functionality the software represents.

pidgin port has --disable-aspell so it wont work without modifying this port

Can't you just install aspell/ispell and rebuild pidgin like I've done so many times?
No need to haul in another dependency :)

Hi,
I would like to know if any contrib/pidgin users would like to have aspell support. It would add aspell and friends to the list of dependencies.

I've manually removed that --disable-aspell line and recompiled. it be nice if the code was patched to be enabled if found or disabled if aspell was not found.
