Hello,
There's this variable that some ports rely on: XFREE86_VERSION
For example the Mesa port.
So, because I've installed the XFree86-4 from ports (it supports my 
graphics card) I set it in the /etc/make.conf as:
XFREE86_VERSION=4
But, after trying to install some X dependent port, I got an
error stating that /etc/mtree/BSD.x11-4.dist cannot be found,
and that I shall check the /usr/src/etc for it. It wasn't there either.
So, for now I copied the /etc/mtree/BSD.x11.dist to /etc/mtree/BSD.x11-4.dist
but I don't think that it's a good idea. On the other hand, having
it undefined will cause two libGL.so to exist on the system, which
is bad either.
Any ideas?
BTW, MAKE_IDEA variable for /etc/make.conf is not documented and
#PERL_THREADED=true should be defined as #PERL_THREADED=yes in
/etc/defaults/make.conf , I'll submit a bug report for these two.
