I'm working on updating the pkgsrc package using a "make dist" output.

Mostly things are fine so far.


I suspect we just see things differently, but I would like to see far
far fewer complicated defaults, and more alignment of defaults with
autoconf norms.  It feels like too much magic and too much "nut is
special".   Basically, do it the autoconf way and people can set vars to
change and that's fine.

Packaging systems are set up to pass standard autoconf args to do things
that packaging system way.  So it's much less of a burden than you
think, and if someone is building themselves, they should  be using a
prefix that does not belong to a packagign sytem anyway.
