You mean you want to generate a /var/db/pkg/portname-1.2.3 directory with appropriate contents so you can wrangle a bunch of files already on your hard drive as if they were a port?
Yes.
Actually, that's pretty much what the ports system does when you do an install from source. Check out the commands the 'do-package' target runs as shown in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk
Ok.
Submitting PRs with updates to bring the FreePascal port up to date will earn you karma points...
I am thinking perhaps start out with a "binary" port or a package until I get familiar with the port system.
Thanks for the pointers. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
