Hi there,

I was the person originally asking if we should not add PORTSCOUT=ignore to
this port.

To try and determine how this should be done. I was looking at both

https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/makefile-portscout.html

and the link mentioned on that page

https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/distfile-survey.html

Seeing as neither the PORTSCOUT page in the handbook nor the linked page
contain the syntax needed in this case, maybe we should add the link to
http://portscout.freebsd.org/info/portscout-portconfig.txt
to the porter's handbook?

Best,

Martin
