Or maybe the set of emails I got could have been more clear. Again, please ask if you're confused by something instead of frobbing things and hoping you're close enough. I tried to be as explicit as I could in the emails I sent you (and other maintainers), but all it took was a short request and I could have explained further to your heart's content. Anyway, to be clear: LOCALBASE is where your port should look to find its dependencies (i.e. files already installed by other ports). PREFIX is where your port installs its own files. > I > spent several hours trying to whack ports into shape due to your emails - > rather than ignore them.

I wasn't giving a distinct PREFIX since it's not globally appropriate to do so (when the port is not a leaf port and it is used by others, it should be installed in LOCALBASE so they can find it).
