            Bug ID: 250782
           Summary: ports(7) manpage: ignored target 'configure' listed
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Manual Pages
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org

Under TARGETS, one of those listed no longer does anything, is ignored, and
silently fails possibly for backward compatibility or due to an oversight. =
If
not due to oversight the following two lines should be removed.=20

     configure      Configure the port.  Some ports will ask you questions
                    during this stage.  See INTERACTIVE and BATCH.


In contrast, the TARGET below which does work, may benefit from adding ment=
ion
of INTERACTIVE and BATCH if in fact there is intended to be no distinction
between them other than only this target is functional.

     config         Configure OPTIONS for this port using dialog4ports(1).
