Thank you for the pointer. I do find it a bit overkill to setup jails
and such, just to build a few ports. I was thinking more along the line of;
cd /usr/ports/"random port"
make "it for i386 even if we are building it on amd64, ooh by the way
build it as a package, and all dependencies as packages as well"
Oh man, man ports. But I do not find the flag
-build-for-another-system-cpu-whatever
Can the ports system be (ab)used in that way?
