Please revert those. They are just messing things up with no real value.

These are DragonFly-specific changes.

* They have value for us.
* It's a standard capability of the pkgsrc makefile

I don't see why you'd even care.  It doesn't "mess things up" for anybody.

You don't address any problem, but are pulling an ostrich. Nothing here
is specific to DragonFly and shouldn't be committed as such.

Sure I did.
Upstream (pkgsrc) is not pruning these packages to our liking (a problem), our objections were rejected (a problem), so we're filtering them out downstream (problem solved).

The user complaints about "broken" packages are getting directed to us, not pkgsrc, and that's also a problem that I just resolved without affected any other platform.
