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 On Thu, 2002-10-31 at 07:49, Lute Mullenix wrote: 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.
