On line 41 of the current ports Makefile, it shows tech-notes.txt:
41 PORTDOCSdoc= brochure.txt tech-notes.txt
Then on lines 163-164 in the post-install stage it tries to install them:
163 .for f in ${PORTDOCSdoc}
164 ${INSTALL_MAN} ${WRKSRC}/doc/$f ${STAGEDIR}${DOCSDIR}
165 .endfor
Change the PORTDOCSdoc variable to:
PORTDOCSdoc= brochure.txt tech-notes/tech-notes.txt
This should install the tech-notes.txt file into the ${DOCSDIR}.
The other option is to remove tech-notes.txt from PORTDOCSdoc and
added it to PORTDOCShtml. Then update the pkg-plist for the new
location.
