there's some software i'd like to port.
it's one folder of files, and the Makefile inside
compiles cleanly. it's very basic - 5 exec's that
go in /usr/local/bin, and 5 manpages.
i read the porting docs, but after a day, i am still
a bit lost, and i am very short on time with some
other things, but i consider this an important port.
so i want to try!
i am not too expert with makefiles, and would like to
double check on some things. i usually install packages,
and don't know ports well.
i want to check on the MINIMAL port cfg's ...
i would like to know if anything is wrong here, or if
anything else is needed. this is what i got out of
the handbook porting material - and i am unsure of
the directory structure, etc.
1. /usr/ports/distfiles/(port dirs)
2. /usr/ports/distfiles/myport/src/(all source files, and source Makefile)
3. /usr/ports/distfiles/myport/pkg-comment
4. /usr/ports/distfiles/myport/pkg-descr
5. /usr/ports/distfiles/myport/pkg-list
(contains relative paths (to /usr/local/bin or /usr/X11R6/bin)
of all files installed - not including man pages)
6. /usr/ports/distfiles/myport/Makefile
