Okay, followup question: How do I get the build variables into makefiles that have them hardcoded? Currently I'm looking at a program whose initial makefiles construct a system type <arch>-<os>-<compiler> (e.g. "i386-freebsd-cc") and then proceed to source in include files for that system type, which better exist, and which contain definitions such as CC= echo "Compiling"; gcc CFLAGS= ... concatenation of a zillion other variables ... which are then used again by submakefiles etc. I don't see how I can trivially import CC, CFLAGS, etc from the environment there. Solutions I'm considering: - Patching the makefiles to include placeholders like CC= echo "Compiling", @CC@ CFLAGS= @CFLAGS@ ... and adding a configuration step where the actual values are substituted for the placeholders. - Throwing out the makefiles and the entire building procedure that come with the source package and putting in BSD makefiles of my own. Any recommendations? -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de >H Deutsche Transhumanismus-Mailingliste echo 'subscribe trans-de' | mail majordomo@lists.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
