When we build releases, we build with an essentially empty make.conf file, which causes "everything" to get built. The release creation Makefile (specifically src/release/Makefile) partitions the results into the different distributions (such as base, catpages, manpages, etc.). sysinstall takes combinations of these distributions to make up the "Developer", "Kernel Developer", etc. distribution sets that get presented to you in the sysinstall menus. Again none of this involves tweaking make.conf, which controls the build at a somewhat lower level. I think that you could probably approximate the "Developer" distribution set by just setting NO_GAMES in /etc/make.conf. That might not be exactly what you installed originally but it's probably close. Practically speaking, however, the games are very small compared to the rest of the base system, so if I were in your position I probably wouldn't bother trying to tweak the build like this. Bruce.
