Creating port

backrow · #1 **(View Single Post)** 7th September 2009

Hi guys,

After the recent thread on ports@ I thought porting some programs I use frequently might be useful (not least because it would make installing them after a clean upgrade much easier). I started with a Game Boy emulator, following Bernd’s tutorial for the most part, and also comparing with the makefile of emulators/scummvm.

In this one, the binary installs fine but the man page doesn’t. Any advice?

Code:

# make fake
===>  Faking installation for gambatte-0.4.1
install -c -s -o root -g bin -m 555 /usr/ports/obj/gambatte-0.4.1/gambatte_src-0
.4.1/gambatte_sdl/gambatte_sdl /usr/ports/obj/gambatte-0.4.1/fake-i386/usr/local
/bin
install -c -o root -g bin -m 444 /usr/ports/obj/gambatte-0.4.1/gambatte_src-0.4.
1/gambatte_sdl/man/gambatte_sdl.6  /usr/ports/obj/gambatte-0.4.1/fake-i386/usr/l
ocal/man/man6
# make install
# man gambatte_sdl
man: no entry for gambatte_sdl in the manual.
# ls /usr/local/man/man6/
# gambatte_sdl
Gambatte SDL 0.4.1
Usage: gambatte_sdl [OPTION]... romfile
