make install distclean

hi

I have freeBSD 8.1 Release and if I install a package from ports, should I use:
Code:
# make install distclean
instead of:
Code:
# make install clean
What are differences?
 
See ports(7), or
# man ports | less +/distclean

So it's clean, but it also deletes the distfile. That is usually not desired unless space is a big concern.

But really, see the ports man page. There are lots of neat and useful targets.
