The warning is talking about things such as the p5- prefix and the -devel suffix. If your port name legitimately has a hyphen in it then nothing should break. The warning is still valid but in this case could safely be ignored. > Or should I really set PKGNAMEPREFIX= vdr-plugin- like the > warning suggests? It is up to you, but I would leave it in the PORTNAME. I would use PKGNAMEPREFIX for modules that don't contain the prefix in their name (see mod_* that uses the apache prefix for examples). -- Eitan Adler _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
