local ports (Mozilla Calendar)

2004-12-28 Thread Tom Vilot
I'm attempting a build of the Mozilla Calendar.
One question: When I do a gmake install, I suspect what I install will 
not be understood by the packages system (/var/db/pkg).

Is there a way to quickly make a local port or a local package that 
I can then use to do things like:

make package
make uninstall
pkg_delete
etc?

I don't know if there's a 'quick' way, but you can do
# cd /usr/ports/category/portname

And, if the port is not installed on your system, you can
do:

# make package

and it'll build and install the port on your machine, and
put a binary package in /usr/ports/packages/All.

Well, therein lies the problem. This is not a port. yet.
This is a tarball (or, more accurately, a cvs dump). So I can't *do* a 
make package

The mozilla port in /usr/ports/www/mozilla can be compiled with the 
calendar built in.  I run it.  Its a tad buggy but very usable.

Unless you are referring to Sunbird... which is the stand alone calendar 
project... I do not think there is a port for it yet.  I would prefer it 
to the component running in mozilla... so if that's what your working 
on, please save my address and e-mail me when you have something, I can 
help test.
