: : I can't speak for the "right" way, but if you specify the variable in : src.conf/make.conf with ?= instead of =, you can override it on the : command-line: : : # grep KERNCONF /etc/make.conf
: KERNCONF?=TTPWEB
: # make -V KERNCONF
: TTPWEB
: # env KERNCONF=SOMETHING_ELSE make -V KERNCONF
: SOMETHING_ELSE

?= doesn't mesh well with WITH/WITHOUT because then it will always be
defined, thus defeating its purpose.

Use .ifndef to define WITH/WITHOUT iff its counterpart is undef:

.ifndef WITHOUT_FOO
WITH_FOO=def
.endif
