Sorry to be so dense, but I've tried setting those variables in /etc/mk.conf (all three), using env and setting them on the command line (env VAR1=val1 VAR2=val2 VAR3=val3 make install) and putting them in my /etc/profile (export VAR1=val1). I've tried installing x11/mstcorefonts and archivers/star. mstcorefonts insists on building cabextract instead of running pkg_add and star insists on building gmake. I'm running 3.7-patched with a ports tree extracted from what's on the CD. Thanks for the patience. This is a really useful feature and I wish I could get it working. -- http://erdelynet.com/ Support OpenBSD! http://www.openbsd.org/orders.html
