Don't I get that with a 'make world'? I have:
$ l /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk
-r--r--r-- 1 bin bin 54241 Oct 9 04:15 /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk
I've built ghostscript 5 twice in the last couple of weeks on a
-current less than 7 days old, and I can confirm both these points.
In addition, a couple of other points:
1. If you want to make it for A4 paper, you need to specify it on the
make invocation:
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp6) /usr/ports/print/ghostscript5 289 -> Make install
===== Mon 13 Oct 08:42:49 CST 1997: Make install
Type "make A4=yes" if you want -DA4 for compilation.
^C
real 0m2.695s
user 0m0.182s
sys 0m0.079s
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp6) /usr/ports/print/ghostscript5 290 -> Make install A4=yes
===== Mon 13 Oct 08:42:58 CST 1997: Make install A4=yes
Using -DA4 for compilation.
>> Checksum OK for ghostscript-5.03.tar.gz.
>> Checksum OK for ghostscript-5.03gnu.tar.gz.
2. 'make clean' cleans out the other directories:
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp6) /usr/ports/print/ghostscript5 288 -> make clean
===> Cleaning for unzip-5.3.1
===> Cleaning for jpeg-6a
===> Cleaning for png-0.96
===> Cleaning for ghostscript-5.03
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp6) /usr/ports/print/ghostscript5 289 ->
