Hmm... What is wrong with directly amending /etc/make.conf with, for
example:
Nothing wrong with doing it this way, just that a newbie has to find
this syntax, and edit their make.conf accordingly. Where with a
newbie using the ports.conf file, they just add each option on one
line, and let the magic added by the sysutils/portconf to
/etc/make.conf do all the work for them.
An additional benifit is that you don't clutter your make.conf file
with all of these .if ... .endif statements when you have more than 10
ports that you set with custom options.
---------------------------------
WRKDIRPREFIX=/usr/obj
.if ${.CURDIR:M*/devel/gmake}
WITHOUT_NLS=yes
.endif
.if ${.CURDIR:M*/mail/fetchmail}
.MAKEFLAGS: -DWITH_NTLM
.endif
:
Note specifically the ".MAKEFLAGS" trick above that IMHO won't easily
work with portconf.
That will work with portconf, without using .MAKEFLAGS:
devel/gmake: WITHOUT_NLS
mail/fetchmail: WITH_NTLM
You could have also used "WITH_NTLM=YES" instead of .MAKEFLAGS in your
make.conf and the fetchmail port would be built with NTLM support.
.if ${.CURDIR:M*/sysutils/uptimed}
post-install-script:
-${RM} ${PREFIX}/www/cgi-bin/uprecords.conf
-${RM} ${PREFIX}/www/cgi-bin/uprecords.cgi
-${RM} ${PREFIX}/www/cgi-bin/uprecords.header
-${RM} ${PREFIX}/www/cgi-bin/uprecords.footer
-${RMDIR} ${PREFIX}/www/cgi-bin
-${RMDIR} ${PREFIX}/www
.endif
---------------------------------
This portconf can't do.
