portconf has horrible syntax, compared to make.conf/src.conf, at least
last I tried to use it (when it first came out). And this is geared
more toward per-port configuration settings. ports.conf would be for
global settings for the whole ports tree, stuff that affects multiple
ports. Things like WITH{OUT}_X11, WITH{OUT}_GNOME, CPUTYPE, perl
version info, selecting a default python version, etc.
Of course, if it's grown those features (global ports settings), then
this whole discussion is moot, as one can just ignore make.conf, and
use src.conf/portconf config file.
portconf ties itself into make.conf.
It does have global port settings and basically anything that can handle
a glob. For a partial example:
*: PYTHON_DEFAULT_VERSION=python2.6 |\
SRC_BASE=/usr/FreeBSD/branches/stable/8/src |\
SYSDIR=/usr/FreeBSD/branches/stable/8/src/sys |\
WITH_NVIDIA_GL
java/eclipse*: WITH_GECKO=xulrunner
mail/*pine*: WITH_ISPELL |\
WITH_LDAP |\
WITHOUT_PICO
multimedia/mkvtoolnix: WITHOUT_WXGTK=yes
pear*: WITH_CTYPE
OK. Some of the examples are old (i.e., java/eclipse and
WITH_GECKO=xulrunner), but you get the idea.
