from pkgsrc/Packages.txt:


 5 PLIST* issues
 =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

 ...

 5.1 Miscellaneous
 =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

 ...

 * Semi-automatic PLIST generation:
   You can use the "make print-PLIST" command to output a PLIST that matches
   any new files since the package was extracted. See below for more=20
   information on this target.

 ...

 7.2 Main targets
 =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

 ...

  * print-PLIST:
   After a 'make install' from a new or upgraded pkg, this prints out an
   attempt to generate a new PLIST from a 'find -newer work/.extract_done'.
   An attempt is made to care for shared libs etc., but it is STRONGLY=20
   recommended to review the result before putting it into PLIST. On
   upgrades, it's useful to diff the output of this command against an alre=
ady
   existing PLIST file.

   If the package installs files via tar(1) or other methods that don't upd=
ate
   file access times, be sure to add these files manually to your PLIST,
   as 'find -newer' won't catch them!
