Upgrading to XFree86 4.3.x

[Roger Merritt]

What's the currently recommended way to upgrade from XFree86 3.x to 4.x? I 
remember last year seeing recommendations to ininstall XFree86 3.x, 
uninstall all apps using X that you might have, delete /usr/X11R6/bin, and 
then install XFree86 4.x.

Is this still the recommended way to avoid problems, or can I just run 
portupgrade -pufRr XFree86?

Yes.  In fact you should remove /usr/X11R6 entirely to get rid of
stale files (which may interfere with X 4.x applications)
