Staging and read-only /usr/ports

[Stefan Bethke]

Guys,

I've noticed that more and more ports are trying to build a package /usr/ports/category/port/port-version.tgz. Since my /usr/ports is mounted read-only (via nullfs), this fails. I've looked through Mk/*.mk trying to figure out how I can redirect this to another dir. Is PACKAGES the way to go? What if I don't want to keep packages around?

For the time being, I'm setting NO_STAGE=yes.


Thanks,
Stefan
