The general rule of thumb is: if it doesn't begin with WITH_ or WITHOUT_, it's not user-settable. NO_INSTALL_MANPAGES is used for ports using imake that don't understand the install.man target. Now of course there are exceptions (usually for no good reason IMHO). The likes of NOPORTDOCS/NOPORTEXAMPLES/... could be changed to WITHOUT_DOCS/WITHOUT_EXAMPLES, it's just waiting for somebody to do the work. -- Florent Thoumie [EMAIL PROTECTED] FreeBSD Committer _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
