Hello list,

I've tar'ed and gzip'ed a binary library. Put on a web-server. Wrote a
Makefile like the Porter's Handbook describes. It fetches the *.tar.gz
and so on.

But during the "make install" he asks for a Makefile (I think
PORTNAME/work/DISTNAME/Makefile) but there is no Makefile because it is
not needed. The library is compiled!

I thought the "NO_BUILD= yes" would be enough. But it seems I need
addiotional work.

Again: I want to prevent make to search for */work/*/Makefile!

Can somebody kick me to the right direction?

Create a "do-install" target in your ports Makefile that installs the
binary file.
