If the port hasn't provided an option to do the thing you want, it can't help you. i.e., if, when you build the port, you have to cd to the "work" directory and fiddle around (by running ./configure, for example), you're doing stuff not provided by the port system and/or that port's author. The suggestion made by Thierry Thomas is a good one, but it does involve editing the port. - Glenn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
