Description Alexey Dokuchaev 2004-07-19 10:10:07 UTC 
Sometimes porter might want to alter supplied pkg-message so it reflects
the reality better, with information available at run-time.  Special
care should be taken here, as to ensure coherent pkg-message would go
into package.  Since it's not that obvious to an average porter, and
straightforward solution is, in fact, wrong, I therefore propose the
following text to be added to Porter's Handbook (see below).

Fix: %%%
How-To-Repeat: N/A (but you can see games/fuhquake/Makefile for real-life usage).
