Here's something that bugs me about the ports, but I hope it's just due to some lack of understanding on my part: cd /usr/ports su chmod -R a+rw . control-d back to non-root cd net/foo make foo depends on bar, make automatically goes to ../net/bar, does make, tries make install, it fails What I'd _like_..and I guess this might just be really hard, I'd like for dependencies to be meetable via /usr/ports/net/bar/work/... instead of requiring bar to be make installed..or at least that's one "solution" I can imagine. What I know works is that I can go to /usr/ports/net/foo, su, make, and so both make and make install run as root. Or am I missing something? Is there already an option to "run" ports out of the built/work directory, instead of make installing them? - Jay To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
