            Bug ID: 191571
           Summary: Man-pages not compressed, .la files not removed if
                    staging is disabled
           Product: Ports Tree
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: Needs Triage
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: mi at ALDAN.algebra.com

When a user sets NO_STAGE=yes -- such as to half the amount of i/o used
    to perform an install -- several things fail to happen. Examples
    are:
        * compressing man-pages, which the ported software may
          have installed without compressing (compress-man target)
        * removal of the .la files (patch-lafiles target)
        * possibly others

    This is because the targets are only invoked, when staging is enabled
    (as part of STAGE_SUSEQ).

    As long as NO_STAGE is supported at all, things should "just
    work" the same way.

How-To-Repeat:
Pick any port, which has the .la-files problem. Perform:
        make NO_STAGE=yes install
    Find the .la files still there.

Fix:
Mark bsd.port.mk as BROKEN?
