I was trying to build VIM on my webserver, and it started to build the X version, downloading all the X libraries, etc. This is a lights out machine, so I didn't want X on it, so I killed the build. I eventually figured out that by putting: WITHOUT_X11=1 somewhere near the beginning of my Makefile, I could force it to build w/o X11 support. With my new-found power, I began to tweak other build-time configuration options with other ports. But then I thought, "you know, theres gotta be a better way to set these options than editing the Makefile". What is the "best common practice" to set these options? -- Soren Harward soren@byu.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
