I didn't know about ports-mgmt/portconf (will check it out now) but what I use is the make.conf file. This blog post (http://blog.innerewut.de/articles/2006/01/14/upgrading-ports-and-preserve-mak e-options) is what enlightened me. And here's how the application specific bits of my make.conf file looks: .if ${.CURDIR:M*/shells/bash} WITH_STATIC_BASH=yes PREFIX=/ .endif .if ${.CURDIR:M*/print/cups} CUPS_OVERWRITE_BASE=yes NO_LPR=yes WITH_CUPS=yes .endif .if ${.CURDIR:M*/databases/mysql50-*} # these two options supposedly give a speed boost BUILD_OPTIMIZED=yes BUILD_STATIC=yes .endif As you can see in the shells/bash case, I can even pass along PREFIX etc arguments. Hope that helps.
