>Description:
The examples given in section 4.8.1. "WRKSRC" of The Porter's Handbook
don't work in practice: They set the WRKSRC variable to the name of a
relative directory, but it has to be an absolute path.
This patch updates the examples to set WRKSRC relative ${WRKDIR}. This
is in line with the default set in bsd.port.mk, where WRKSRC is
initialized to ${WRKDIR}/${DISTNAME}.
>How-To-Repeat:
- Read http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/makefile-wrkdir.html#AEN1877
- Try to set WRKSRC to ${PORTNAME} in a port makefile, like the
example suggests.
