Hi,

I am trying to make a port but the distfile comes in shar format. I
originally set EXTRACT_CMD to /bin/sh but then it tried to extract in
/usr/ports/distfiles. 

I change EXTRACT_CMD to cd ${WRKDIR}; /bin/sh but now I think it is in the
wrong directory to make (dies later saying it dosnt know how to make all).
I guess I could append ; cd ${WRKDIR}/${DISTNAME} to EXTRACT_CMD but I
assume there is a better way.

Has anybody dealt with shar archives before?

BTW I'm not on the list so direct email would be apprecited please.

Andrew
