I've been trying to package a port which needs an external tarball during the execution of ./configure, but pkgmk always unpack all tarballs. I wonder what is the standard way to do this? Should I pack them again?

I never had this problem, but using the $PKGMK_SOURCE_DIR variable to point to your tarball would be a slightly less sucky way of doing it.

Don't include it in the source array. Retrieve it in the build function.

Have a look at /usr/ports/contrib/ghc/Pkgfile for an idea.
