I'm trying to find a way of determining whether or not a given port should have a package. I would prefer to obtain this information via make. e.g. make -V PACKAGEEXISTS Looking at the various settings in Mk/*, I'm not seeing anything which is obviously the solution. Clues please? background: Yes, this is for FreshPorts code. When a commit is processed, the database will be updated with this information. -- Dan Langille : http://www.langille.org/
