Ports config location

2004-09-17 Thread Skylar Thompson
I'm having some trouble with deleting an old ports configuration file. I'm
trying to build the new PHP 4.3.8 (with the new modular config setup), and
made a mistake in setting it up. I want to be able to pull up the
curses-based config screen, but not even deleting the entire ports tree and
pulling it down again solves that; I get the some setup every time, and it
proceeds with the build without prompting me. How do I get it to prompt me
again for configuration?

cd /usr/ports/lang/php4-extensions  make config  \
make FORCE_PKG_REGISTER=yes install

... a little more complicated than usual for the ports sytem ...

That did the trick. Thanks!

You may find what are you looking for in /var/db/ports/.
'man 7 ports' points you to 'make showconfig' and 'make rmconfig'.
