I'd like to point out that it harms a process I have as a port user. If projects published signatures for their releases, I want to check them, because I can have a trust relationship with upstream. So the process that involves ''make makesum'', verify the signature, ''make makesum'' is now broken. Can I just set _MAKESUM=true in /etc/mk.conf and be sure that I have the same workflow as before? If so, I think this variable should be a documented user setting. Pretty please. :) -- jca | PGP : 0x1524E7EE / 5135 92C1 AD36 5293 2BDF DDCC 0DFA 74AE 1524 E7EE
