Portmanager already has this I believe. You can add config options to the portmanager config file and it will use them when building things. For example: ##################### # custom settings # # remove "#" to use # ##################### #textproc/docproj|JADETEX=no| #java/jdk14|-DMINIMAL| #textproc/libxml2|THREADS=off SCHEMA=on MEM_DEBUG=off XMLLINT_HIST=off THREAD_ALLOC=off| # # ## ##do not let portmanager update the following ports #IGNORE|editors/openoffice-1.1| #IGNORE|java/jdk14| www/horde|WITHOUT_WV=yes WITHOUT_XL=yes WITHOUT_X11=yes WITH_MAGICK=yes| mail/imp|WITHOUT_LDAP=yes WITHOUT_SMIME=yes WITH_DOVECOT=yes| graphics/ImageMagick|WITHOUT_X11=yes| print/ghostscript-gnu|WITHOUT_X11=yes| works well for me so far. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
