You would have to browse through the Makefile and look for configuration
options. Typically, if there is a FOOBAR option, you would 'make
-DFOOBAR install' in the port directory.
Or, you could just edit the Makefile to add the arg you want. Let's look
at mail/cyrus-imapd23. Its Makefile has a section that goes
CONFIGURE_ARGS= --sysconfdir=${PREFIX}/etc \
--with-cyrus-prefix=${PREFIX}/cyrus \
--with-cyrus-user=${CYRUS_USER} \
--with-cyrus-group=${CYRUS_GROUP} \
--with-sasl=${LOCALBASE} \
--with-bdb-libdir=${LOCALBASE}/lib \
--with-com_err \
--with-openssl=${OPENSSLBASE} \
--with-perl=${PERL5} \
note the trailing backslash I added ^
I would imagine you could just add
--with-mboxlist-db=berkeley \
and
--with-seen-db=flat
to that list. (The backslash means "continued on the next line".)
Disclaimers: 1) I know nothing about cyrus. 2) I have never hacked a
Makefile in this way. What I've said makes sense to me, but maybe others
know better or can elaborate.
