Hi, I have a (simple) question about installing from the ports coll. The 1st time I issued `make install`in /usr/ports/www/firefox it showed a configuration menu where I could select things like xfs. I disabled this xfs option. Now if I want to install Firefox again it won't show me this configuration dialog anymore. I tried `make deinstall` and `make reinstall`- that wouldn't help. I even tried to delete the firefox ports directory and did a cvsup - but that dialog didn't show up. How can I set these installation options once I already installed a port. Where are these options saved on the harddrive? Will I have to run the configure script by hand? I am quite new to FreeBSD, so if there's plenty of instructions concerning my little problem, just give me a direction to search. Thanks in advance! Carsten.
