Yeah, I have already run that script but no symlink is created: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:ports$ ls -l /usr/ total 108 drwxrwxr-x 2 root operator 512 May 9 16:17 .snap drwxr-xr-x 11 root wheel 512 May 20 19:03 X11R6 drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 7168 May 25 20:55 bin drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Apr 29 2006 compat drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 May 25 20:53 games drwxr-xr-x 13 root wheel 512 May 11 17:52 home drwxr-xr-x 47 root wheel 4608 May 25 20:53 include drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 9728 May 25 20:55 lib drwxr-xr-x 5 root wheel 512 Apr 29 2006 libdata drwxr-xr-x 5 root wheel 1536 May 25 20:55 libexec drwxr-xr-x 26 root wheel 512 May 26 19:14 local drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 May 25 19:53 obj drwxr-xr-x 70 root wheel 1536 May 27 23:36 ports drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 5120 May 25 20:55 sbin drwxr-xr-x 27 root wheel 512 Apr 29 2006 share drwxr-xr-x 21 root wheel 512 May 19 18:53 src [EMAIL PROTECTED]:ports$ sh /usr/ports/Tools/scripts/mergebase.sh This script will attempt to backup /usr/X11R6 into /usr/tmp/mergebase/oldx11base.20070527.233644.tar and then move the contents onto /usr/local. It will then replace /usr/X11R6 with a symbolic link, pointing to /usr/local. After that, the script will attempt to change some settings in /etc that by default point to both /usr/X11R6 and /usr/local to remove references to /usr/X11R6; specifically, the files that could get altered are /etc/periodic.conf /etc/manpath.config /etc/rc.conf. Be advised that this script expects default environment, notably it assumes that you have not changed $X11BASE and $LOCALBASE variables from their default values and that /usr/X11R6 is regular directory and not separate mount. If these assumptions are not correct, either edit this script to change $X11BASE $LOCALBASE and/or $BACKUPDIR values or do the merge by hand (perhaps using this script as a rough guide).
