Otherwise the ports Makefile has to contain NO_PACKAGE=ignores cflags But then your software doesn't get compiled on the package building machine. So people never would be able to simply install your software using pkg_add .... Its documented in the FreeBSD porters handbook http://www.freebsd.org/porters-handbook/index.html http://www.freebsd.org/porters-handbook/x1852.html <- ! Otherwise FreeBSD packages would - get too big, with the result that fewer packages fit onto the CDs - have too esoteric CFLAGS, which might result in instability of the software... > If I missed something please tell me. see above ;-) And thanks for your work !
