Or, you can set (for example):
WRKOBJDIR?=/usr/obj/pkg/${MACHINE_ARCH}
in your /etc/mk.conf and your package build directories will all be outside
your pkgsrc installation. Useful if you serve disk space to more than one
architecture. The `?=' is there so that you can override the value on the
command line if you want to do some testing, for example:
$ WRKOBJDIR=/tmp/obj nice make
(sh syntax) or:
$ setenv WRKOBJDIR /tmp/obj; nice make
(csh syntax).
