>Description:
ports(7) man page has an unfinished sentence fragment "Setting NO_IGNORE":
NO_IGNORE If defined, allow installation of ports marked as
<FORBIDDEN>. The default behavior of the Ports framework
is to abort when the installation of a forbidden port is
attempted. Setting NO_IGNORE Of course, these ports may
not work as expected, but if you really know what you are
doing and are sure about installing a forbidden port, then
NO_IGNORE lets you do it.
>How-To-Repeat:
man ports
>Fix:
Finish the sentence, something like "Setting NO_IGNORE allows installation of ports marked as <FORBIDDEN>." Of course this is redundant with the first sentence, probably why the original author went into a recursive edit loop and left the fragment.
