Not to reopen this issue, but I just did a make release today (3.3-RELEASE).
Not only did it copy all of my /usr/ports/distfiles (1.7GB) into
${CHROOTDIR}/usr/ports/distfiles, but it also copied them into
${CHROOTDIR}/R/ftp/ports as a tarball, AND also in
${CHROOTDIR}/R/cdrom/disc1/ports as a tarball.
(it didn't download them though, it just copied what was there)
Now, on one hand this makes sense for it to do this but on the other it
doesn't, who's heard of a cdrom with a 1.7gb tarball on it? (granted it's
not possible).
So, here is my question, is there some way to make a release without all the
distfiles? I don't want to define NOPORTS because I wanted the ports dir
tree and I want to be able to make the documents, but I don't see anywhere
in the Makefile where it's possible to tell it not to copy the distfiles
over.
Thanks,
Chris
