Lute,
You will want to invoke the following:
make -DWITH_PSPELL install
I apologize, but I don't know where this is/might be documented.
However, it's a pretty general rule that you can go into any ports
directory and look through the Makefile. Scan for "if defined" or "if
!defined", etc. In the sylpheed-claw port Makefile, there is a menu of
options that are shown when compilation begins.
NOTE: In some ports you will want to set variables, such as
make WITH_GIMP=yes install
Which is not the same thing as defining a variable (in case you don't
already know this).
Good luck,
Alex

Hi there,
I have been installing most of my software via the ports, and for the
most part it been a simple matter of:
make install clean
however now I would like to install sylpheed-claws with the pspell
option, and even though I have been through the info on make about three
times still can't get it to work. Could someone please at least point me
to some more docs so I can get this silly thing to compile the way I
want it?
Please CC me as I don't subscribe to the list, thanks.
Lute
