* From: Chuck Robey <chuckr@picnic.mat.net>
* Are you saying it "should" or "will" install in /usr/local? I'm
* downloading your example, but I'm pretty sure it won't go in PREFIX,
* because imake only knows the X11 tree. I agree you may *want* it to
Chuck, you are misunderstanding the issue here. We're talking about
ports that use imake, not xmkmf (and /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config).
It is perfectly reasonable for a port to use imake (the program) with
its own imake config files, without any of the X11 config files. For
example, {chinese,japanese,korean}/Wnn all do exactly that, and
install into ${LOCALBASE}. (The build initially crapped out because
they did need X libraries to link X clients, but I fixed that with an
USE_XLIB, not USE_IMAKE or USE_X_PREFIX.)
(Yes, the USE_IMAKE variable in bsd.port.mk is a misnomer, it should
have been called USE_XMKMF or something.)
