configure ports?

[kr651129]

So I know that I can go to the ports and run

# make install clean

but what if I want to run configure to allow special functions, is there a way to do this?

If you are asking about beyond

 make config

, there are ways (search the forums for

 make patch

) or maybe even editing the Makefile, and/or adding a Makefile.local... I am an amateur though unless there is a compelling reason, so should not explain more (but I did detail the patch... method in one post once, would take a while to find it again.)

For more informations have a look at the man page - ports().
