Often you need to specify values, like for postgresql: make PREFIX=/some/other/dir And here's another question. I always use the same options for make, make install and make clean, ie: make PREFIX=/some/other/dir make PREFIX=/some/other/dir install make PREFIX=/some/other/dir clean This is because I noticed that some ports (I forgot which one I was having this experience with) need these options in order to install and clean correctly as they generate the package name based on the options specified. Is what I'm doing OK or is there another, beter/simpler/easier way to do it?
