hey all:

first off i'm from a solaris and freebsd background, just getting starting
on netbsd.

ok... here's my problem: i wanted to install lyx from the pkgsrc, but i
hit an error on make. basically:

xyz has an unacceptable license: fee-based-commercial-use.
to build this package, add this line to your /etc/mk.conf:
ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES+=fee-based-commercial-use

i made an /etc/mk.conf file with the ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES directive that
the error asked me to put in.

however make still reports the ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES error when I try to
install.  i looked up the man page for mk.conf and there doesn't seem to
be any info about the ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES directive.

what can i do? where can i look for more info?

thank you in advance,
Y
