If our previous example | extracted into a directory called foo (and not foo-1.0) you would | write: | | WRKSRC= foo | | or possibly | | WRKSRC= ${PORTNAME} `- 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 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
