Date: Tue, 16 May 2000 22:56:51 -0400 From: James Howard Sender: owner-freebsd-ports@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I am working on a port (a text editor) which should optionally have support for ispell. This support is compiled in and cannot be changed at run time. Is it possible to have the ports system apply a patch only if a variable (WITH_ISPELL in this case) set?
