So do I .... if/as/when the port is 'current', ELSE I am editing ~/src/EDITME and saving it as ~Local/makefile. Makes no difference. That is how you change it in either (any) case. Once portinstall (OR make install) has been run, subsequent portupgrade or 'make reinstall' & such leave the setting changes made to Local/Makefile alone, UNLESS you ask for a new configure step. > I could install 'the traditional way' I suppose, but then there > is still no knob provided for those who don't wish to do that. > 'portinstall' *does* the 'traditional way', just with a bit more scripting.
