You will find that:
make MYADMDIR=/usr/local/www/data-dist/phpMyAdmin install
gives better results for this package. This will however run into the
problem that the /usr/local/www/data-dist directory and contents will
be deleted if you ever update your apache port. You're really meant
to break the data -> data-dist link and create your own
/usr/local/www/data directory if you are going to install your own
website:
cd /usr/local/www
rm data
mkdir data
cd /usr/ports/databases/phpmyadmin
make MYADMDIR=/usr/local/www/data/phpMyAdmin install
Cheers,
Matthew
