DISTDIR is used by the ports repo for: # DISTDIR - Where to search for and store copies of original sources But DISTDIR is also used by FreeBSD base for (from bsd.own.mk): # DISTDIR Change the tree where the file for a distribution # gets installed (see /usr/src/release/Makefile). [not set] except that it doesn't just get used in release/Makefile, it's used in the base Makefile.inc1 for a number of things that I'm not entirely sure what it's for. Can someone figure out what we should do in this case? This was discovered because ezjail-admin sets DISTDIR for ports, but it was breaking my -DNO_ROOT installworld by putting the METALOG in an incorrectly documented place (since fixed)... -- John-Mark Gurney Voice: +1 415 225 5579 "All that I will do, has been done, All that I have, has not."
