I'm working on a Portfile for a piece of software that uses a fairly
well-behaved Makefile, which respects DESTROOT and in addition uses a few other
variables for various install locations (like PREFIX, for instance).
Based on the MacPorts guide, I assumed that just setting "destroot.post_args
PREFIX=${prefix}" would still use the default value of "destroot.destdir"
(i.e., "DESTDIR=${destroot}"), but I found the assembled command to be just
"make -w install PREFIX=/opt/local", with no DESTROOT passed through. In the
end, I had to use in the Portfile "destroot.post_args DESTDIR=${destroot}
PREFIX=${prefix}".
This seemed redundant, or at least inelegant. Did I miss a better way to do
this, or was I simply reading too much into the guide?
