Description wayne 2001-09-27 18:20:01 UTC 
When building a port, make install writes files, including work/.install_done
into the /usr/prots tree.  As make install is normally run by root, this
means that companies trying to NFS mount a single copy of/usr/ports are 
required to mount it write enabled AND -maproot=root.
Also, it is not intuitive that one must do make reinstall on a new machine
to circumvent the ports system.

Fix: 

Move the files read/written by make install and make reinstall 
from the ports work directory to /var/db/pkg/<PORT NAME>.
How-To-Repeat: NFS mount /usr/ports read only and try to make install
