Then the next time you build the port, if the /var/db/ports/<portname>/options file exists, it won't show the options menu again. The only way to override these options is to use 'make config' or 'make rmconfig'. 'make rmconfig' removes the options file, so the next time you build the port, the options menus will appear. To see the current settings: make showconfig Ports that use the options menu don't allow you to use 'make WITHOUT_QUICKTIME=yes' or entries in /etc/make.conf to override the options.
