Hi thanks for the answer.
But i can't get it to work

When doing a make show-depends-build-defs
it says:
make: "/etc/mk.conf" line 31: Need an operator

Where line 31 means about here i think.
 ${ECHO} "===> BUILD DEFs for $${dir}" &&        \
        cd ( ${.CURDIR}/../../$$dir &&                \
        ${RECURSIVE_MAKE} ${MAKEFLAGS} show-build-defs);    \

I tired removing some line extensions.

I also looked for the variables in /usr/pkgsrc/mk/*
But i must admit i don't quite get what is going on and how to fix it ???

Michael
