Bug 145655

Comment 1 Doug Barton 2010-04-12 18:25:59 UTC

IMO it would be more useful to include a pointer to
ports/ports-mgmt/portconf.

I would suggest to include it additional to the already proposed content
- that way people can choose whether to use a port or simply make.conf
  itself for it.

That's fine as long as the text doesn't become so confusing as to be

My suggestion would be the attached patch. However I'm not really the
