Then, how about put following in Makefile? CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --disable-x11
$ ldd libgif.so libc.so.1 => /lib/libc.so.1libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/pkgsrc/20110926/gcc34/lib/libgcc_s.so.1
libm.so.2 => /lib/libm.so.2 That looks much better.I was able to rebuild my sole dependency on that package (emacs). I simply tried to open a GIF file with emacs (not knowing what would happen), and it was displayed in the buffer. So at least for me it is okay to remove X11 from giflib.
