The standard "man ports" way to show the current configuration is # make showconfig This stays empty within editors/vim. Instead you have to say # make show-options 2. There is no documentation about this, neither in UPDATING nor in the ports directory. 3. Tuning the options as descibed in "man ports" results in # make config ===> No options to configure 4. Obviously these both work: # make -DWITH_OPTIONS showconfig # make -DWITH_OPTIONS config Again, there is no documentation describing this way to take action. >How-To-Repeat: See above. >Fix: Remove the silly "show-options" target. Remove the ".if defined(WITH_OPTIONS)" line and its ".else" part. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
