I am using ezjail-3.4.2. Changing the jail dir as defined by ezjail_jaildir in 
/usr/local/etc/ezjail.conf does not work. Install does not honor this change. 
This is easy enough to get around with a symlink. Am I missing something here?

There is no option to construct the base jail without a buildworld having been 
done. Is there a technical reason for this?

Thanks as always for any thought.
