When compiling lang/swipl it is required to run.

... as part of deducing header / library placement of misc/ossp-uuid. This is
all part of the cmake setup of lang/swipl, and currently I use an awful patch
to hardcode something in the cmake file pre-make - but this file actually
allows one to set a variable - $LibUUID_ROOT - to the path of uuid-config from
the outside. I have successfully experimented with this, so I added:
BUILD_DEPENDS= uuid-config:misc/ossp-uuid
.. to the makefile. Now my question is: How do I properly get to the pathname
of uuid-config?? In order to pass it to cmake somewhat like (pseudo):
CMAKE_ARGS= -DLibUUID_ROOT=${which uuid-config:sh:H}
The proper and canonical solution for this problem is
-DLibUUID_ROOT=${LOCALBASE}
Ports should expect their dependencies to be installed under ${LOCALBASE}.
Remove the patch and use use USES= localbase:ldflags?
