The warning is talking about things such as the p5- prefix and the -devel suffix. If your port name legitimately has a hyphen in it then nothing should break. The warning is still valid but in this case could safely be ignored. > Or should I really set PKGNAMEPREFIX=3D vdr-plugin- like the > warning suggests? It is up to you, but I would leave it in the PORTNAME. I would use PKGNAMEPREFIX for modules that don't contain the prefix in their name (see mod_* that uses the apache prefix for examples). --=20 Eitan Adler
