Hi,

I have a quick question about using the Ports.  When installing a port,
there are times when I would like to have the port install with
configuration options other than the defaults.  So far I have not been able
to figure out the process for this and have resorted to installing via the
tarball a couple of times.  I would much prefer to install via the ports for
various reasons and would appreciate any help.

I hope it is not something as simple as running ./configure from w/in the
work directory of the port.  Making modifications to the Makefile did not
seem to work.

Thanks

geo
