<p>I have a project that does not distribute any files by default.
Instead, all distributed are part of various subports. This is
because this package only provides language bindings (python,
etc.) for a dependent package. I am getting the error message:</p>
<pre>:error:destroot No files have been installed in the destroot directory!
:error:destroot Please make sure that this software supports 'make install DESTDIR=${destroot}' or implement an alternative destroot mechanism in the Portfile.
:error:destroot Files might have been installed directly into your system, check before proceeding.
Is there a way to set a subport to be built by default?
Is there a way to have an empty package?
Thanks,
Ed
