PYTHON_FOR_BUILD_ONLY in lang/python/tool.mk
By far the biggest offender with the implicit DEPENDS issue is python.
The problem is that lots of packages simply do this:
.include "../../lang/python/tool.mk"
assuming that this will pull python in as a tool only.
However, it doesn't. Unless PYTHON_FOR_BUILD_ONLY is specifically set
to "tool" prior to pulling it in, pyversion.mk will include the python
buildlink3.mk and we end up with the gettext/iconv issues.
I'd like to propose we at least do the following:
--- a/lang/python/tool.mk
+++ b/lang/python/tool.mk
@@ -12,6 +12,7 @@
PYTHON_TOOL_MK= defined
.if !defined(PYTHON_PYVERSION_MK)
+PYTHON_FOR_BUILD_ONLY?= tool
.include "../../lang/python/pyversion.mk"
.endif
so that packages that simply include tool.mk on the assumption that it
will only be used as a tool (a pretty reasonable assumption in my
opinion?) will DTRT.
I'll obviously test this in the next bulk build first, but any
objections to the logic?
After that we'll need to go around and remove PYTHON_FOR_BUILD_ONLY=yes
from packages that really mean "tool". These two changes fix
fontconfig, etc.
