Thanks Bryan -- some other kind soul pointed out that this example is in the ports man page. Something I had not found before, sigh... We live an learn and sometime even remember what we have learnt! I would have found it really helpful if the 'make install' had warned me that there were sub-packages and referred me to the man page. I'd be happy to submit a patch to do this if I could figure out where bsd.port.mk lives. I spent several hours going though the Makefile and googling but failed to find the vital info. I did see the sub package reference in the make file but failed to figure out that these were imported from the environment.
