For further help with a GNOME port, look at some of the existing ports for examples. The FreeBSD GNOME page has contact information if more help is needed. The components are divided into GNOME components that are currently in use and legacy components. If the component supports argument, they are listed between parenthesis in the description. The first is the default. "Both" is shown if the component defaults to adding to both build and run dependencies.

| Component | Description |
|---|---|
HAVE_GNOME | Deprecated, do not use. Was used to check if a
component was installed. This was used for ports
that did not have
--enable/--disable
switches for their configure script. But the building
of parts of a port without a implicit request is
discouraged. |
WANT_GNOME | Deprecated, do not use. Was used by ports that
needed USE_GNOME for optional
dependencies, which where defined after
bsd.port.pre.mk. Since
USE_GNOME can be used after the
inclusion of bsd.port.options.mk,
there is little need for this macro any more. |
pangox-compat | pangox-compat has been deprecated and split off from the pango package. |
