I couldn't find in the docs how to pass options to the configure script.

For instance, I'm compiling postgresql under FreeBSD 5.3 stable.
After 'cd /usr/ports/databases/postgresql7' and ' make' a list of configure options is shown; among them I'm interested in "WITH_TESTS"" but I do not know how to pass this option to the compiler (or to configure????).

if you want to use WITH_TESTS for example you need to add

make WITH_TESTS=yes install clean (or something similiar)

when portupgrade'ing that you should do

portupgrade -M 'WITH_TESTS=yes' postgresql
(or again; something similiar)

Hope that helps!


Could you please help me?
