The correct way is to add USE_GMAKE=yes to the port's Makefile. The various variables of interest are documented at the top of /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk. > Curious: the only port in 2.2.6-R that requires gmake to build is > pgp... and it doesn't use it!

Admittedly, this is post-2.2.6, but: flarn:~/FreeBSD/ports$ grep USE_GMAKE */*/Makefile | wc -l 156 156 is considerably larger than 1. :-) I do not know enough about PGP's build process to say offhand whether the BUILD_DEPENDS is an error. Note that USE_GMAKE is an automatic dependency on gmake, just like USE_PERL5 requires, well, Perl 5. -- Matthew Hunt * Stay close to the Vorlon. http://www.pobox.com/~mph/pgp.key for PGP public key 0x67203349.
