Hello,

How do I build & install xfree 4.2 & separate the build from the install?
Previous to xfree 4.2 I could build & install as 2 separate steps.
The new "metaport" system seems to preclude this & also to duplicate
the tarball extraction(s).  Hints, anyone?

I've been running 4.1.0_10 for some time now & need to update.

Many thanks,

-kc
