(I tried posting this yesterday, apparently to no avail, so apologies if this is a repost.) I use quotation marks because I'm not certain what I intend to do is clever, really, but it would make my life a lot easier. I'm trying to make ports install themselves to something like PREFIX/portname/, so that libtool15's binary would be PREFIX/libtool15/bin and its man pages would be PREFIX/libtool15/man, etc. A quick read through the handbook and bsd.ports.mk imply that there's no current way to do it, but perhaps I missed something. I'd be willing to try hacking up Mk bits (either for committing or just for myself). Or am I insane for wanting to force ports infrastructure to conform to this sort of localism? Mike
