Subject:   virtual categories - descriptions
Message-ID:  <42DC3409.13523.FA6C4F8@localhost>

For physical categories, I can get the description from the Makefile 
via 'make -V COMMENT'.  Is there a similar source for virutual 
categories, e.g. gnome?

I see descriptions for virtual categories listed at:

http://www.freebsd.org/ports/
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-
handbook/makefile-categories.html#PORTING-CATEGORIES

Were the descriptions of virtual categories made up?

FYI: the descriptions in the two locations do not always match and 
sometimes neither location matches the values taken from the 
Makefile.

Please CC me on all replies on this thread.
