some ports have OPTIONS, then you can use make config / make config-recursive (man ports)

others don't, then you can set them in /etc/make.conf, for example :

jci...@frodon ~ % cat /etc/make.conf
WITHOUT_APACHE="YES"
WITHOUT_IPV6="YES"
#WITHOUT_NLS="YES"
WITHOUT_KDE="YES"
WITHOUT_GNOME="YES"

.if ${.CURDIR:M*/x11/rxvt-unicode}
    WITHOUT_AFTERIMAGE="yes"
.endif

.if ${.CURDIR:M*/editors/vim}
    WITH_GTK2="yes"
.endif

(of course you can always use make -DWITH_FOO -DWITHOUT_BAR clean install clean)

Julien

hello,

i am a gentoo user and now i am trying to install a freebsd on my machine.
ports are great but while my machine is compiling i receive messages about
the flags.

in gentoo i was able via the file /etc/portage/package.use to determine
which flags i wanted to enable and which not.

is there any way to do this in FreeBSD,since gentoo's portage is based on
ports.

thanks in advance.
