It's a hack, that's > true, but only a small one :-) I've located where the modifications should take place: Stage 5, add another condition for each USE_JAVA: "java/$(PORTNAME)" != "$(_JAVA_PORT_...)" If you want I could provide a patch. My main problem regarding JDK port testing is that even though I have spare time, my CPU hasn't got enough of it ;) And building a native port takes a lot ! Too bad there's no branching for ports (everything is -CURRENT AFAIK) so people could test for themselves. Regards, Herve PS: I've had time to think about "bsd.java.mk 2.0" (while supervising an exam...) and I've come to some thoughts I would like to share. Maybe we should let the port building as-is for now and support it only in bsd.java.mk 2.0 ? I'll explain further in my next message (after a good meal that is).
