System:
-OBSD 3.6
-Apache (chrooted in /var/www with suexec enabled)
-Postfix (stable: 2.1.4-sasl2-mysql-pgsql)

I want to install Mailman (using the ports because the package won't
let me change anything) and have it work correctly with the current
setup of Apache. Apparently, it doesn't work well with it chrooted in
/var/www when Mailman is spread out in /var/spool/mailman and
/usr/local/lib/mailman. I don't want to unchroot Apache. I've tried
changing the MMHOME and MMSPOOL variables (in the Makefile, INSTALL,
and DEINSTALL files and on the commandline in different combinations)
to /var/www/mailman (I want all of it in there). It seemed to have
worked until the step of building the package. I get errors about files
not found in PKG_PREFIX/usr/local/lib/mailman...

What else do I need to change? Is there an easier way to tell the port
where to install itself?

Does anyone have any idea how to do this?

The reason I ask here is because I'm using the port, not the stock
package from Mailman. I don't know if there's a generic way to change
the install location for any of the ports, or if each one would have to
be configured separately.

I don't know if the port differs from the original package at Mailman.
If it doesn't, I could just use compile that one. Anyone know?
