>Description:
This paragraph should reflect current/future use of
src.conf for base system.
The src.conf is not even mentioned here - it should be added as a new paragraph
like the one for /etc/make.conf there, clearly stating its purpose.
The old text mentions make.conf
- with option that was renamed and moved to rc.conf, like e.g. NO_PROFILE to
WITHOUT_PROFILE
- or with option that is part of porter's handbook
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/install.html
which references that should be removed from that paragraph:
25.7.3 Check /etc/make.conf
..
A typical user will probably want to copy and uncomment the NO_PROFILE line found in /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf to /etc/make.conf.
Examine the other definitions, like NOPORTDOCS, and decide if they are relevant to you.
I would even suggest to remove the paragraph "25.7.3 Check /etc/make.conf" as
it is out-of-date.
