Yes, I broke down and read the pre-extract script and fiugred this out. Satoshi, why do we enforce mtree permissions for /usr/local? I hate having to be root to install packages after I make them and in this case, there's actually a port which require you to be root when you're building it. I sometimes chmod the group permissions on my /usr/local tree, but this gets wiped out the next time I do a make install because mtree changes it back. > BTW: Why do you not install the teTeX package? I have strange CFLAGS options and the port does a CFLAGS = instead of a CFLAGS += to add a -D parameter.
