Stop in /usr/ports/... error code 1

2007-06-29 Thread zigniew szalbot
Hi,

I sometimes make a mistake of selecting wrong options while installing
port software which ends in a port not being installed. I never know how
to undo it in order to start again from the options selection. I try make
clean but that does not fix the issue and I cannot get a given port
installed.

What is the procedure to delete initial choice of settings to start afresh?

Thank you very much in advance!

You can use 'make config' in port's directory to configure OPTIONS
again. This and many other make targets are documented in ports(7)
manpage.

'make config' will get you the options screen.

Cheers,

Beech
