Ouch, pkg_add doesn't read the makefile variables....
That complicates things even more.
Would it be an option to create a config.sh on the fly
while processing the Makefile (no interactive configure):
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/net/cvsup-mirror/scripts/configu
re
script:
---------------------------------
#! /bin/sh
variables="USER GROUP UID GID"
echo ""
echo -n "Building the \"config.sh\" file ... "
for var in ${variables}; do
eval echo ${var}=\\\"\${${var}}\\\"
done > ${WRKSRC}/config.sh
echo "Done."
---------------------------------
pkg-install:
---------------------------------
. ${base}/config.sh || exit
---------------------------------
Or something like that....
Would that be a good option or is there a less complicated example
that would also work for pkg_add?
