My apologies if this is covered in the FAQ, I didn't see it.=20

If I build a foreign tarball that is either not in the ports, or not the
version that I want, is there a way to then integrate that build as a packa=
ge,
registered with the FreeBSD packaging system?

I don't like just installing to /usr/local without a way to uninstall clean=
ly
later.=20

Thanks,
Mike
