Hey fedi friends, what are the differences in USES and config options listed at #freshports for a #FreeBSD #port? I am familiar with USE in #Gentoo #Linux, which seem to be the config options here? For #Gentoo it is very common to use different USE settings for a packages, but for #FreeBSD I read from porter's handbook there are not many USE items and they looked different from the term in #Gentoo. I am still trying to wrap my head around what is happening that whenever I try to build a port, like #vim or #git in tiny flavors, I constantly noticed #Perl #Bash #lua #Rust #Python and all other seemingly unrelated stuff get pulled in. #BSD #RunBSD #Unix #FOSS
