What makes the most sense is for this to just get extracted directly over the top of /compat/linux, with nothing other than the 'fetch' and 'extract' targets being relevant. So I guess I should set PREFIX to /compat/linux, and WRKSRC to ${PREFIX}. Unfortunately that means that if I make a Makefile patch like the linux_lib port does, it'll be written in /compat/linux/, and 'make clean' may have a rather unfortunate effect. 8( Perhaps some advice or ideas from the ports experts? -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@gsoft.com.au.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@gsoft.com.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 0411-222-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control.
