You might want ${V} in SITES = .../minivmac-${V}/ portcheck(1) found 2 issues with your port. 1. There are $OpenBSD$ lines in patches/. You can delete them, we stopped putting $OpenBSD$ in ports. 2. The port Makefile has a long line, more than 80 characters. You can use backslash \ in make(1) to continue long lines. I would also use && to tell sh(1) to stop if a command fails, like do-gen: cd ${WRKSRC} && \ cc setup/tool.c -o setup_t && \ ./setup_t -t ${SETUP_TARGET} -cpu ${SETUP_CPU} > gen && \ sh ./gen Might not need "chmod" before "sh ./gen". make(1) can expand ${MACHINE_ARCH} in variable names; you might be able to simplify the arch logic like SETUP_FLAGS-amd64 = -t ob64 SETUP_FLAGS-i386 = -t obsd SETUP_FLAGS-powerpc = -t obsd -cpu ppc and run "./setup_t ${SETUP_FLAGS-${MACHINE_ARCH}}". If someone wants to add another arch, a -cpu list is in https://www.gryphel.com/c/minivmac/develop.html This port ignores CFLAGS and uses cc -Os. I would not change this; patching -Os to CFLAGS looks too difficult. My powerpc is a Mac PowerBook G4 from 2004, which is now emulating a Mac Plus from 1986. I spent a few hours on my amd64 to learn minivmac and prepare some disk images. (My amd64 has Firefox, which can run another Mac emulator, Infinite Mac. I used Mac OS 7.6 in Infinite Mac to extract 2 .sea.bin files and to convert 1 archive from StuffIt .sit to Compact Pro .cpt; the old StuffIt Expander 4.0.1 in my minivmac can't read newer .sit but can read .cpt.) I then copied a Mac game (disk1.dsk + vMac.ROM) to my powerpc. I used thunar on amd64 and PathFinder (pkg_add fox) on powerpc to drag files into minivmac. I used unzip (pkg_add unzip) for .zip files. --gkoehler
