Yes, they actually do! Please do not remove them, because they are not as=20
buggy as it is claimed here. I often use the -p option for testing of my=20
tinderbox -exp packages and it works fine.
A package is basically the same as an installed port - just with some=20
additional pkg meta data files all packed into a compressed tarball. If a=20
package contains hardcoded paths then the port is buggy not the package or=
=20
pkg_add. It is a general rule that ports should respect ${PREFIX}. If they =
do=20
not those ports need to be fixed.
I find it weird to think the -p / -P options should be removed from pkg_add=
=2E=20
Do not castrate the tool if some ports are buggy!
Thanks!
