This works, but in the specific case of p5-Apache, I required two things
that the patch didn't cover:
- The ability to specify a double target ("clean patch") so that I know
I'm working off of clean source
- Putting it in DEPENDS instead of *_DEPENDS.
For now, I kludged it in to cd into ${PORTSDIR}/www/apache and do a make
clean patch rather than keep the requestor of the port waiting.
Still, as Chuck mentioned, these changes will make life a lot easier for
future ports (and some existing ones that do really ugly things right
now).
Thanks.
