You could pass this var to pkg-install scripts, too (put it in the standard *SUB* lists). That way you don't have to do the dance that was added to security/clamav/files/pkg-install.in: if [ -n "%%DESTDIR%%" ]; then PW="/usr/sbin/chroot %%DESTDIR%% pw" CHOWN="/usr/sbin/chroot %%DESTDIR%% chown" MKDIR="/usr/sbin/chroot %%DESTDIR%% mkdir -p" else PW="pw" CHOWN="chown" MKDIR="mkdir -p" fi but rather just: PW="%%CHROOTDESTDIR%% pw" CHOWN="%%CHROOTDESTDIR%% chown" MKDIR="%%CHROOTDESTDIR%% mkdir -p" _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
