Hi,

===> Configuring for mc-4.7.0.1
configure: error: invalid variable name: +
===> Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.

I tracked this error down to some settings portconf-1.4 adds to
/etc/make.conf:

# Begin portconf settings
# Do not touch these lines
..if !empty(.CURDIR:M/usr/ports*) && exists(/usr/local/libexec/portconf)
_PORTCONF!=/usr/local/libexec/portconf
..for i in ${_PORTCONF:S/|/ /g}
${i:S/%/ /g}
..endfor
..endif
# End portconf settings

Once I uninstall portconf, which removes the above lines from make.conf,
mc builds normally.

Regards
Andrew

Disregard. The error was in /usr/local/etc/ports.conf, and completely my fault:

misc/mc: CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--without-vfs

I don't remember adding this line, but evidently I got distracted at
the time and never tested whether it worked.

Maybe it would be useful if the ports system flashed a message along
the lines of "using settings from /usr/local/etc/ports.conf" as a
reminder to people like me ;-)

Sorry for the noise.

Regards
Andrew
