There are 6 patches necessary, 5 of which are to makefiles, and thus easy to make prefix-clean. However one patch is to a pregenerated .h file, which (among other things) defines the directory to install to. Since it is a .h file not a makefile, I can't use the standard make variables to change it for prefix-cleaness. Is there a way to do this? I have checked the various Nethack ports (which mine originally derived from), and they have not dealt with this, and have just left it as is, and thus not prefix-clean. I have also checked the porters handbook and not found anything. If there is a way to do it I will also fix the Nethack ports, and submit patches :) thanks -Adam To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
