Hello
Could someone remind of the make target for showing messages which are
displayed when installing ports please. I thought it was some variant of
make showinfo but I can't find one that works. I am assuming that if
<port>/files/pkg-message.in exists the this make target would show a
result.
thanks
Chris

This is explained in the pkg_info man page.
To Show the install-message file for the installed package
postfix-2.6.3,1 you would enter "pkg_info -D -x postfix | less"
Please read the man page! Also install ports-mgmt/bpkg, it's an awsome utility
Thanks for the info. I read man ports, quite a lot of bsd.ports.mk plus
list archives and google but because I was so convinced it was a make
target I didn't think of pkg_info. It all makes sense now. What's more
next time I forget I will be able to look up my own post :)
Thanks Matthew S for the tip about tarballs too.
cheers
Chris
