I two ports share the same code base, but install different files, then a metaport or similar could be clever. See for example databases/postgresql83-(server|client). The postgresql83-server depends on the client. The client can installed without the server. Similar to OpenAFS, hence. Now, they have the same source tarball, so the -client port just sets a few parameters and then uses the postgresql83-server port as a master Makefile. >> Have a look at the mysql-client, mysql-server and mysql >> ports to see an example of how to do this sort of thing. > > I didn't manage to find a metaport for mysql... Works almost exactly the same as described for postgresql. :-) Regards, Palle <girgen@FreeBSD.org> > > > WBR > -- > Boris Samorodov (bsam) > Research Engineer, http://www.ipt.ru Telephone & Internet SP > FreeBSD committer, http://www.FreeBSD.org The Power To Serve > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-afs@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-afs > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-afs-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
