OK. I have a question. I did the following and it failed: setenv PREFIX /fs/gerbils sudo mkdir $PREFIX cd /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/gtk12 make all install <fails to find glib> It appears that the gtk12 makefile is using LOCALBASE rather than PREFIX to find things. If I set LOCALBASE and PREFIX in the above sequence, it works. So, is there a bug here? Or am I misunderstanding what PREFIX is for? Reading bsd.port.mk, LOCALBASE is in a section that says it should rarely, if ever, be set. Is this one of those rare times?
