Then instead of using /usr/pkg/etc/mk.conf, we use $PKG_SYSCONFDIR/mk.conf
in there, with $PKG_SYSCONFDIR being set to /usr/pkg/etc by default.
If a person is using a different location for their pkgsrc install,
they're probably setting those different variables already just to be able
to reach the files.
The scenario where this would affect a person with a pkgsrc install in a
different location is this: they'd have to :
- install to a different location than /usr/pkg
- not set anything to accomodate this; LOCALBASE, path, etc
- not have set BINPKG_SITES in their environment
- be using pkg_radd or pkg_search
- ignored documentation in the man page that says "$PKG_SYSCONFDIR,
defaulting to /usr/pkg"
- want to use a different download location than the default
- have entered location in /different/location/for/etc/mk.conf
Pkgsrc installs are supposed (generally) to stay within the installed
$prefix. We're duplicating a basic pkgsrc variable outside of the pkgsrc
$prefix. These changes correct for that - I don't want to ever have to
say to somebody, "Oh, you changed the wrong BINPKG_SITES setting."
