Chapter 14. A Sample Makefile
Table of Contents
Here is a sample Makefile that can be used to create a new port. Make sure to remove all the extra comments (ones between brackets).
The format shown is the recommended one for ordering variables, empty lines between sections, and so on. This format is designed so that the most important information is easy to locate. We recommend using portlint to check the Makefile.
