Hi,

I need to remove a file from the work directory from the port Makefile.
I'm not sure how to go about it (the file isnt used and stops the
installation if its there).

My alternatives are:

1) Being able to make clean in the original Makefile
2) Move a file from its current name to anything.
3) rm the file.

If anybody has any other suggestions or can tell me which way is "best" I
would be most grateful. I can rm and mv from a "regular" makefile but I
thought
there may be a "proper" way to do it for port Makefiles.

Thanks,

Andrew
