by During the next week, I plan to upgrade my machine to 4.6.2. When I
installed the installation of X11 that I have now, I built it from
source with the ports tree, and it put the config files in the normal
location /usr/X11R6/lib/X11.
However, I'm aware that in the past, FreeBSD has packaged the
X configs to go into /etc/X11, and I also remember that back when I was
running 4.4 on a different machine, the port asked you before the build
which of the two locations you'd like your X configs to go to.
What I'm wondering is this: If I do the upgrade, and have it
upgrade my X-Window installation, is it going to be smart enough to see
which place to look for my configuration? I like freedom of choice with
things like this, but I hope the package tools are keeping all this
freedom in mind at upgrade time.
Anybody done the upgrade already on a machine with the configs in /usr?
