>Description:
The DB_DIR env/make variable allows one to build/installmysql
into a different default database dir.  I expected that if I built
a package using a particular setting of DB_DIR, then the binary 
package would install into that dir on another machine.  This almost 
works, but presently requires that DB_DIR be setenv-ed on the other
machine before pkg_add.  I think that the pkg-install script should 
be editted as part of the package build process to default to the 
specified directory.
>How-To-Repeat:
/usr/ports/databases/mysql323-server 
make DB_DIR=/u1/mysql package

Try to install this on another machine (mkdir /u1 first).
The mysqld will hang up because it lacks permission to /u1/mysql
>Fix:
I think you need to pass pkg-install through sed, just like is done for 
the mysql-server.sh script.
