--y0ulUmNC+osPPQO6 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi */*, sometimes I'd like to read manpages or docs of ports/packages but without the need to build and install the complete ports first.=20 Maybe something like that already exists, I would like to have "doc-only" packages or "packagename-manpage.tgz" as packages. The idea is, to collect docs and manpages while running the "release-package build" and build some small doc-packages from it. In the ports a target "make install-doc" may just check for doc-packages and install them. When building the complete port, there might be a "make deinstall-doc" to avoid conflicts between (older) doc-packages and (newer) files from the port.=20 A target "make package-doc" might build a doc-package from the actual sources (and might be available to other systems). The target "make package" might include "package-doc" (if not disabled). Just an idea.
