MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-ID: <1649.870319672.1@one.sabami.seaslug.org> Date: Wed, 30 Jul 1997 20:27:53 -0700 From: Scott Blachowicz Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-ports@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi- I was just noticing something with my nmh port...it seems that the prefix is compiled into the binaries, so if you make a package out of it, you can't retarget the prefix with the pkg_add -p option (without recompilation, which kind of defeats the purpose of the package & its -p option). How is this kind of stuff normally handled?
