But "make install" wants to write some registering info exactly to the /usr/ports/.../work directory. This information seems not important for future use, as e.g. "make clean" deletes the whole /usr/ports/.../work directory, which is safe for future activity of the port and for packet database entries in /var/db/pkg. Could you please give advice, how I can redirect writing impetus of "make install" to some other place like /var/tmp.
