Solved [Solved] make.conf very quick question

[fred974]

Hello everyone,

I have a very quick question here. In my /etc/make.conf file, is

WITH_PKGNG="yes"

the same as

WITH_PKGNG=yes

?

Which one is the correct syntax as on the web I have seen both versions?

Thank you.

I'm not sure whether it will work with the quotes (I don't think so, though) but it does work without them. In other words: the second example is correct, the first one might not be.

See /etc/defaults/rc.conf for how the default rc.conf looks. With or without quotes, with or without capitals, will work. Historically, it is "YES" and "NO", though.

But /etc/make.conf is not a shell script like /etc/rc.conf, it's a Makefile, which uses different syntax.

Thank you guys.

As my jail flavour doesn't work with the quotes I'll remove them and see

Oops, yes, my bad. See /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf for that one, of course.
