with the geant4 package I'm trying to port there are lots of environment variables that define the building and installing processes, for example:
G4BIN: where the compiled binaries are installed.
G4LIB: where the compiled libraries are installed.
G4SYSTEM: defines the OS and C++ compiler.
.
.
.
LOTS MORE.

how exactly I should handle this variables (note that there is no
 configure stage). I tought to define them using something like:

G4BIN=${LOCALBASE}/bin
etc.

but it doesn't look right to me; is there a better way to pass this variables?
(sorry for the dumb question, but I did not find the answer on the pkgsrc guide)
