Actually it seems more that some of the pors have huge "include's" as /usr/ports/devel/cdk as it includes the big maninfo.mk, or /usr/ports/security/openssl-beta that has this huge Makefile. The `make readmes` stops in that directory, if you take away the dependency of /usr/ports/devel/cdk/maninfo.mk So it seems that ports maintainers have a job to get the `make readmes` work again. > > > -- > If I could think of a two-line witty aphorism for you to remember > me by, this would definitely be it. > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message -- Gunnar Flygt, Postmaster SR To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
