 The file **mk.conf** is the central configuration file for everything that has to do with building software. It is used by the BSD-style *Makefiles* in */usr/share/mk* and especially by [[pkgsrc/pkgsrc]]. Usually, it is found in the */etc* directory. If it doesn't exist there, feel free to create it.  
   
 Because all configuration takes place in a single file, there are some variables so the user can choose different configurations based on whether he is building the base system or packages from pkgsrc. These variables are:  
   
 * BSD_PKG_MK: Defined when a pkgsrc package is built.  
 * BUILDING_HTDOCS: Defined when the NetBSD web site is built.  
 * None of the above: When the base system is built. The file /usr/share/mk/bsd.README is a good place to start in this case.  
   
 A typical **mk.conf** file would look like this:  
 <pre><code>  
 # This is /etc/mk.conf  
 #  
   
 .if defined(BSD_PKG_MK) || defined(BUILDING_HTDOCS)  
 # The following lines apply to both pkgsrc and htdocs.  
   
 #...  
 LOCALBASE=          /usr/pkg  
 #...  
   
 .else  
 # The following lines apply to the base system.  
   
 WARNS= 4  
   
 .endif  
 </code></pre>
