 I could build their cdrtools, but the port must be ancient or something.

 Perhaps I could become a packager. Another port, gtk-gnutella, isn't
 even worth having if its not maintained.

It seems to be about time you did some learning.
packages are provided and are installed by using pkg_add(1). They are
pre-compiled and packaged for you.
You don't need make install unless you are compiling ports and raw
beginners are advised to use packages not ports.
In fact the only people who should be compiling ports are those who are
1) competent in the art, 2) are doing it to test patches or upgrades
reported by maintainers or 3) have the skills in (1) and need to
upgrade to a published port for some technical reason and who know how
to make sure that their kernel and userland are recent enough to match
the new port version.

Re: Burning DVDs

2011-11-14 Thread Tony Abernethy
Out of curiosity, WHY should any make install in ports actually DO anything?
Seems like the object of ports is to make packages and packages are installed
by pkg_add.
If you want to be something, say a packager, it helps if you have at least a
slight clue what it is all about.

 Apparently this support code has been in cdrtools since 2009, the site
 it tells me to go to tells me I don't need it. It's like bureaucracy,
 lol.

 I could build their cdrtools, but the port must be ancient or something.

 Perhaps I could become a packager. Another port, gtk-gnutella, isn't
 even worth having if its not maintained.
