I of course may be entirely wrong :-) I'm currently doing some work on generating multiple packages from one port directory, using my port configurator as a base (http://rucus.ru.ac.za/~nbm/portconf/). What I still need is _exact_ make variables that will be set when packages are being created, and this behaviour is wanted. I think I'm close on a solution here. (ie, generate tin-nntponly and normal tin packages from one port) Comments, help, code, &c. on the port configurator welcome.
