This is something that is determined by your USE flags. Take a look at them |
| 9 |
in /etc/make.profile/make.defaults. This shows you the list of your current |
| 10 |
USE flags, and the default has X. USE flags means that any configure |
| 11 |
time/compile time options that are available for X within the ebuilds are |
| 12 |
used (and in this case they also pull Xfree as a dependancy). |

|
| 14 |
you can eedit your settings peramanently, or a quick fix you can also do this: |
| 15 |
USE="-X" merge php. |

P.S. php has a _lot_ of USE options, if you want a very bare bones php install |
| 20 |
that doesn't pull in a lot of things from a basic system you may also want to |
| 21 |
try USE="-*" emerge php |
