I am not sure but perhaps after the make -DCLIENT_ONLY=yes stuff you can do make package, this should in my opinion make the package you can install everywhere you wish (freebsd ofcourse). Note that i did not read any explaination about this, and i just assume this when i "decode" the command into explaination. -- Kind regards, Remko Lodder Elvandar.org/DSINet.org www.mostly-harmless.nl Dutch community for helping newcomers on the hackerscene mrtg.grunn.org Dutch mirror of MRTG -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]Namens Drew Tomlinson Verzonden: zondag 7 maart 2004 22:13 Aan: sellis@telus.net CC: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Onderwerp: Re: Building Packages - Links to Tutorials?

Now, is there any way to make a package without installing it? For example, on my build machine I have the full version of bacula installed. However, I'd like to make a package that is built with the "CLIENT_ONLY=YES" option. So do I really have to build and install it "wrong" on the build machine and then rebuild and install it "right" just to get the package I want to install on another machine? Seem like there would be a better way.
