ports cvsupped 22 Feb 2002

Ports in /usr/ports as normal
spare space to build them in /home

dylan# df -k /usr /home
/dev/da0s1f   3816204  1603494  1907414    46%    /usr
/dev/ad0s2e  10163179  1734369  7615756    19%    /home

>Description:
No ports will build properly with WRKDIRPREFIX set and /usr/obj symlinked
to the same directory. (it may just be WRKDIRPREFIX and usr/obj exists)

from /etc/make.conf I have:
	WRKDIRPREFIX=/home/obj

For keeping obj dirs for ports and src on separate
disks from the srcs.

Ports I have tried to build so far all fail with 
  "don't know how to make real-build. Stop"

>How-To-Repeat:

 # Set up a breaking environment
 mkdir /home/obj
 echo "WRKDIRPREFIX=/home/obj" >> /etc/make.conf
 cd /usr
 rm -f obj
 ln -s /home/obj /usr/obj

 # try it out.
 cd /usr/ports/security/nmap # OR SOME OTHER PORT
 # e.g. cd /usr/ports/sysutils/file
 make install

# DIES WITH 
# make: don't know how to make real-build. Stop

>Fix:

 rm /usr/obj

 A better fix would obviously be in the makefiles somewhere. But I've
 not got that bit where / how.
