Your git submodule to gh_tuple looks interesting, it should probably be added to the framework and not to a specific port.

x11/ly/pkg-plist

4–7

Unless those 4 files MUST NOT be modified, they should also use @sample.

[0mp]

• Decorate setup files with @sample.
• Do not set XDG_RUNTIME_DIR to /run/user/... as it is not supported like this

on FreeBSD and it is just much better to let programs use defaults (usually
somewhere in user's home directory). This unbreaks certain features of programs
like Firefox and GNOME Keyring.

x11/ly/Makefile

39–50

No. This has to go as a post-patch target.
What you probably want to run is something along the lines of make clean extract do-patch makepatch. (YMMV)

[0mp]

Move REINPLACE_CMD invocations from pre-build to post-patch.

Nice trick. Thanks!

Thank you!

This is not so easy to generalize it. We would need to provide some hooks (like in case of this port, we need to run make github first).

Thanks, @mat!
