I found how to make it produce "native-"
prefixed output. Compare:
# cd ../../devel/binutils/
# make package-name
binutils-2.33.1_2,1
# FLAVOR= make package-name
native-binutils-2.33.1_2,1
Or in other notation:
# make -VPKGNAME
binutils-2.33.1_2,1
# FLAVOR= make -VPKGNAME
native-binutils-2.33.1_2,1
That output is the content of ${PKGNAME} in
/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk in each case.
It turns out that when binutils is not installed
at all that ${PKGNAME} is used:
PACKAGE-DEPENDS-LIST?= \
if [ "${CHILD_DEPENDS}" ]; then \
installed=$$(${PKG_INFO} -qO ${PKGORIGIN} 2>/dev/null || \
${TRUE}); \
if [ "$$installed" ]; then \
break; \
fi; \
if [ -z "$$installed" ]; then \
installed="${PKGNAME}"; \
fi; \
for pkgname in $$installed; do \
${ECHO_CMD} "$$pkgname ${.CURDIR} ${PKGORIGIN}"; \
done; \
fi; \
. . .
This explains why I've not seen "native-" when doing
the types of commands you are doing: I have binutils
installed (multiple flavors, in fact).
As to how FLAVOR= ends up defined but empty: there
is the recursive use of package-depends-list in the
code hidden by the ". . ." above:
checked="${PARENT_CHECKED}"; \
for dir in ${_LIB_RUN_DEPENDS:C,[^:]*:([^:]*):?.*,\1,}; do \
unset flavor; \
case $${dir} in \
*@*) \
flavor=$${dir\#*@}; \
dir=$${dir%@*}; \
;; \
esac; \
case "$$dir" in \
/*) ;; \
*) dir=${PORTSDIR}/$$dir ;; \
esac ; \
dir=$$(${REALPATH} $$dir); \
if [ -d $$dir ]; then \
case $$checked in \
$$dir|$$dir\ *|*\ $$dir|*\ $$dir\ *) continue;; \
esac; \
childout=$$(cd $$dir; ${SETENV} FLAVOR=$${flavor} ${MAKE} CHILD_DEPENDS=yes PARENT_CHECKED="$$checked" package-depends-list); \
set -- $$childout; \
childdir=""; \
while [ $$\# != 0 ]; do \
childdir="$$childdir $$2"; \
${ECHO_CMD} "$$1 $$2 $$3"; \
shift 3; \
done; \
checked="$$dir $$childdir $$checked"; \
else \
${ECHO_MSG} "${PKGNAME}: \"$$dir\" non-existent -- dependency list incomplete" >&2; \
fi; \
done
The FLAVOR=$${flavor} can have flavor unset and so
produce FLAVOR= in the recursion. That in turn gets
the "native-" prefix involved.
The oddity of the "native-" prefix showing up may be
a problem for Bryan Drewery or someone like that to
address.
