Hello,

until v6.2, xenocara.tar.gz contained a hierarchy whose top node was "xenocara",
which meant that it should be unpacked with CWD=/usr. Since v6.3 the "xenocara"
top node is gone, which means, if one follows these FAQ instructions:

> $ *cd /usr/src*
> $ *tar xzf /tmp/src.tar.gz*
> $ *tar xzf /tmp/sys.tar.gz*
> $ *cd /usr*
> $ *tar xzf /tmp/ports.tar.gz*
> $ *tar xzf /tmp/xenocara.tar.gz*

one screws up one's /usr filesystem with a bunch of stuff that does not belong
there, and overwrites several files in /usr/share/mk/.

Either the FAQ is wrong, or the tarball is wrong. Does anyone think it
worthwhile fixing this?

Regards,

Robert Urban
