Section 15.4.1 may be what you are recalling, & knowing how
daemonfowl likes to build his own ports, the warning needs to be emphasized:
Code:
Another common failure is a missing X11 installation. Even if the port you try to
build has no direct dependency on X11, a subpackage of it or its dependencies
may require X11 headers and libraries. Building ports on systems without X11 is
not supported, so if you insist on doing so, you are on your own to figure it
out. For many ports, there are, however, "no_x11" flavored packages available,
which you can install without needing X11 on your system.
