[-- Attachment #1 --] My apologies if this is covered in the FAQ, I didn't see it. 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 package, registered with the FreeBSD packaging system? I don't like just installing to /usr/local without a way to uninstall cleanly later. Thanks, Mike -- Michael P.
