Can't add multiple flavors of port

[neilalexander]

For example, targeting BSDRP 1.91, I want to install bird 1.6.4 instead of bird 2.x.

There is a net/bird port for FreeBSD 11 which seems to support FLAVOR=ipv4 and FLAVOR=ipv6 as flavors, and apparently the separate net/bird6 port is no longer in existence. I want to install both flavors in the image.

In my .nano file I tried the following:

add_port "net/bird" "FLAVOR=ipv4"
add_port "net/bird" "FLAVOR=ipv6"

... but only one or other gets installed, leaving it impossible to install both bird and bird6.

I guess this is because the working directory/mount for net/bird is overwritten on the second pass.

I got the same issue, I still use bird 1.6.x in my production environment (@ocochard btw, thanks for this project)

Anyway updating the make.sh script to support multiple flavor will be quite tricky because it use the port name for everything (find the source, build, temp directory, etc.)

I've found out a quick and dirty workaround, just make a symlink of the net/bird port directory: /BSDRP/BSDRP/FreeBSD/ports/net/bird like this /BSDRP/BSDRP/FreeBSD/ports/net/bird6 for example and then recall it into your .nano:

add_port "net/bird" "FLAVOR=ipv4"
add_port "net/bird6" "FLAVOR=ipv6"
