What I'm saying is that you should have -doc in /etc/make.conf and enable it on a per-package basis. The doc flag builds extra documentation that general users don't need, man/info/html pages are included by default (at least, that's how it is supposed to work, the odd package, like ffmpeg, won't even include a man page without the doc flag). -- Neil Bothwick This is as bad as it can get-but don't bet on it.
