+ <para>In some very special cases, for example emulators, like
+ <application>Wine</application>, a port has to bundle
+ libraries, because they are in a different architecture, or
+ they have been modified to fit the software's use. In that
+ case, those libraries should not be exposed to other ports
+ for linking. Add <literal>BUNDLE_LIBS=yes</literal> to the
+ port's <filename>Makefile</filename>. This will tell
+ &man.pkg.8; to not compute provided libraries. Always ask
+ the &a.portmgr; before adding this to a port.</para>
