Hi,

Quote from the porter's handbook:

,-
| 4.8.1 WRKSRC
|
| The variable lists the name of the directory that is created when the
| application's distfiles are extracted. If our previous example
| extracted into a directory called foo (and not foo-1.0) you would
| write: 
| 
|     WRKSRC=      foo
| 
| or possibly
| 
|     WRKSRC=      ${PORTNAME}
`-

<http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/makefile-wrkdir.html>;

If I'm not mistaken, this is wrong, because ${WRKSRC} is supposed to
be an absolute path, e.g. "${WRKDIR}/foo". Am I confused, or should I
send a patch to the doc team?

Regards
Henrik
