Created attachment 161344 [details] patch The pkg-descr contains fix $PREFIX.
This patch doesn't stage: ===> Generating temporary packing list ** Missing pkg-descr for wtf-20150918. *** Error code 1 Also, I don't think SUB_LIST is necessary here. %%PREFIX%% is expanded automatically. Also, pkg-descr should be present in the port directory so that tools that parse it can find it in the right place. However, I can revise the wording for pkg-descr with the next update. Where acronyms are kept is an implementation detail and it's already mentioned (correctly) in the man page.
Maybe an empty pkg-descr? It's a very ugly workaround.
No, an empty pkg-descr is much, much worse.
This issue was fixed with revision 399133.
