For xorg-drivers you simply use: RUN_DEPENDS= ${LOCALBASE}/libdata/xorg/drivers:${PORTSDIR}/x11-drivers/xorg-drivers to get this to work for php5-extensions, you would need to patch the Makefile with: PLIST_FILES= libdata/php5/extensions PLIST_DIR= libdata/php5 do-install: ${MKDIR} ${PREFIX}/libdata/php5 ${TOUCH} ${PREFIX}/libdata/php5/extensions Then you could use: RUN_DEPENDS= ${LOCALBASE}/libdata/php5/extensions:${PORTSDIR}/lang/php5-extensions Scot _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
