Thanks for the quick reply Landry. I understand. I'm working on porting
VTK as it is a dependency of FreeCAD. VTK requires the dependencies
listed below. When FreeCAD looks for VTK during the build configuration
phase it looks for all of these as well.
BUILD_DEPENDS = devel/utfcpp \
math/exprtk
LIB_DEPENDS = archivers/lz4 \
archivers/xz \
graphics/glew \
graphics/jpeg \
graphics/png \
graphics/tiff \
math/double-conversion \
math/hdf5
I believe FreeCAD looks for these because VTK can be compiled with many
different options (which may or may not cause these dependencies to be
required). However I built VTK mostly with the default options.
Similarly, FreeCAD uses the x11/qt6 module which, among other packages,
pulls the following:
graphics/vulkan-loader
x11/xkbcommon
This are also looked for by FreeCAD explicitly.
