>Description:
When setting up a machine according to the "Application of Jails" section of 
FreeBSD Handbook [1], one runs into a problem where "make deinstall" inside of 
a jail does not work as expected. There is a workaround, which probably should 
be noted in the chapter.

Note that this only applies to ports installed in a jail. Ports installed on 
the base system do not need the workaround.

>Fix:
The workaround is to use "make deinstall PREFIX=/s/usr-local", where 
/s/usr-local is whatever make spits out when you type make deinstall. If you 
followed the handbook instructions exactly it will be /s/usr-local.
