How to remove FireFox ???

[Juveinferno]

Hello,
i install gnome 2.* from ports. With gnome is installed a Fire Fox 2.0.0.18. I must to delete Fire Fox. But i do not know who is the best way to do it. I wish to delete all ports that depend on the FireFox 2.0.0.18 not only FireFox. I use pkg_delete he erased only firefox no depend ports. The command or what you recommend to do this ?

well most likely everything in gnome2 that depends on a gecko implementation. but nothing depends on Firefox it's just using it for the gecko requirement which I m not sure how to find exactly for which ports actually depend on gecko maybe someone else will know.

ports-mgmt/pkg_cutleaves is what you want, but it won't work this time, because ff2 is gnome2 dependency

pkg_cutleaves is simple to use script

Yesterday I deleted the firefox but my epiphany can work.
Finally, I installed it again.
I think we can cut some dependencies from the meta ports by editing the meta ports' makefile.

maybe ff2 source is just necessary to build epiphany.....

fwiw, epiphany's rendering engine is the same as Firefox.

I know, i just thought i needs real firefox.exe (joking), to run

I think so, the epiphany browser may have some run dependency.

Maybe the denpendency is the rendering engine.

I have one media player, one irc client......,but I have two web browser, and one is never used and can be deleted. :(

Can we separate the engine from browser application?

I also use debian, in "debian amd64 etch" epiphany don't depend on firefox.

Add to /etc/make.conf:

WITH_GECKO=xulrunner

and rebuild GNOME. Then GNOME won't depend on firefox 2 anymore.

How about the epiphany browser, it will work without firefox?

Yep. It works fine. It'll be build with xulrunner. I never use it though as I install FF3 once I'm done building :e

Thank you very much, it works for me, and I found this when I make install epiphany again:

epiphany is using xulrunner for gecko support, but you can
change that by defining WITH_GECKO to the following values:
firefox
xulrunner

I re-installed epiphany and gnome-cd again, because these depend on firefox. :e
