First, before you tell me to do it, I have already RTFM, done a google search, and even looked for examples. Here is what I am trying to do.I have to generate a set of packages for amd64 and i386 systems. I usually have a simple script that does: cd /usr/ports/XXX make make install make package cp <generated package> /.../repository This served my simple needs well, as most of the time I had gone through the configuration process and set up the default options that I wanted. But this requires me to a) run through this process once by hand b) copy the /var/db/ports/* to a machine with another architecture c) pray that the port options are the same on the i386 and amd64 versions. What I would like to do is pass in a set of default options on the command line such as: cd /usr/ports/lang/php5-extensions make configure THIS=yes THAT=no make make install make package I just know that somebody out there is doing this better, slicker, and with more savvy than I am doing this. OK. How do I do this? And just in case there are some others out there, could you put this information, or a hint to it, in the ports(7) document? -- Patrick Powell Astart Technologies [email protected] 1530 Jamacha Road, Suite X, Network and System San Diego, CA 92019 Consulting 858-874-6543 Web Site: www.astart.com
