Well, I won't be deeply convinced that using ${PREFIX}/${PORTNAME} as
installation target it the cleanest thing to do while the core team
won't direct us to do so. In fact, I think your arguments are not so
bad and I'm going to adopt your point of view for a first try in the
code rewrite (anyway changing installation location is not so hard),
even if it's totally breaking hier(7) IMHO.
But for now, I'm quite harassed that both hierarchies are used in the
same time ; I think this is going to be a mess if port maintainers
are able either to spread the port files accross the standard hierarchy
(hier(7)) or to simply put them all in ${PREFIX}/${PORTNAME} depending
on their own policy without further control.
I would like to hear the opinion of people such as kris@ about this
subject and know if it has already been discussed by FreeBSD
authorities or if it is judicious to ask core team otherwise.
