\def\inter{\mathop{\rm int}} Let MM be a closed convex (generally unbounded) subset of a Banach space EE with 00 being an interior point of MM, AA be a closed subset of EE. Let TM(A)T_{M}(A) be the set of all x0Ex_{0}\in E such that the problem minaAμM(x0a)\smash{\min\limits_{a\in A}}\, \mu_{M} (x_{0}-a) is well posed, where μM\mu_{M} is the Minkowski functional of MM, so μM\mu_{M} is a nonsymmetric seminorm. We obtain some asymptotic properties (appearance far from the origin) of MM which are necessary and/or sufficient for SM\inter(A)TM(A)S_{M}^{\inter}(A)\setminus T_{M}(A) to be a meagre or a σ\sigma-porous subset of SM\inter(A)={x0E 0<ϱM(x0,A)<supxEϱM(x,A)}S_{M}^{\inter}(A)=\left\{x_{0}\in E\Big|\ 0<\varrho_{M}(x_{0},A)<\sup\limits_{x\in E}\varrho_{M}(x,A)\right\}\, where ϱM(x,A)=infaAμM(xa)\varrho_{M}(x,A)=\inf\limits_{a\in A}\mu_{M}(x-a).
