What I have done in the past is create "slave" ports. Say the port you want to install twice is in ports/category/foo. Make a new directory ports/category/bar. Inside that directory, create a Makefile similar to this: PORTNAME= foo PKGNAMESUFFIX= _bar-duplicate COMMENT= This is the foo port but it installs as foo_bar-duplicate PREFIX= /path/to/alternate/prefix # ...you may want other options here ... MASTERDIR= ${.CURDIR}/../foo .include "${MASTERDIR}/Makefile" Install once from category/foo and once from your new port's directory and away you go. Again, the porter's handbook has lots of useful information about everything above.
