I am hosting with a company that has put version 3.4 of freebsd on our
system because it is the version of freebsd they support. I am trying
to install the png library, it compiles wonderfully, but every time I
try intstall it I get
make install

If so, you may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install
this port again by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
If you really wish to overwrite the old port of
without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
in your environment or the "make install" command line.
*** Error code 1
Stop.

I have tried make reinstall, and the FORCE_PKG_REGISTER. I really don't
have the option of upgrading to freebsd 4.X at the current time as they
want to charge us $120 an hour to do it and they have not had much
experience doing this... Is there some way I can install the compiled
libraries by hand? I do have root access.
