How does this affect USE_IMAKE ports? Will we have to add MANx= sections for X11 ports? Looking at /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config/FreeBSD.cf and /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk, I can't find where we don't compress the manpages if NOMANCOMPRESS is defined. I'm sure I'm missing something somewhere... > In case you are wondering, this is a step towards building appropriate > PLISTs depending on the value of NOMANCOMPRESS. Are we talking about autogeneration part of pkg/PLIST? If not, do we want to look at getting the manpages from PLIST? I see room for inconsistancies between MANx= and pkg/PLIST. -- -- David (obrien@cs.ucdavis.edu)
