Excerpt from 'man portupgrade(1): (same for portinstall) OPTIONS The following command line arguments are supported: [...] -m --make-args Specify arguments to append to each make(1) com- mand line. Use it like so: # portupgrade -m 'WITH_FOO=yes USE_BAR=no' category/port Or use Igor's advice to automate the process. HTH, martink -- Martin Karlsson
