The above mentioned port installs or otherwise scatters quite a few (10 or
more) new directories into /usr/local/. Did I miss some configuration
setting that I had to explicitly state in order for everything to just be
installed in /usr/local/xorp or maybe in a more proper place.

Regards,

Looking at the pkg-plist for the port, this is the normal, expected
installation. I don't see many lines controlled by a PLIST_SUB, so I
don't think this can be changed by setting some options.

XORP as of 1.7-WIP in SVN is now compliant with the Filesystem Hierarchy
Standard.

Its directory is thus more in line with other packages for free
UNIX-like operating systems.

I appreciate your feedback that this may have violated POLA for you,
however, it's pretty much a prerequisite for getting it shipped in
Ubuntu and other UNIX-like systems.

If you have any further queries please direct them to the xorp-users and
xorp-hackers mailing lists.

Thank you for your interest in XORP.

regards,
BMS

P.S. there is a pkg-message for the legacy net/xorp package which
explains why XORP needs PREFIX to be set to other than the default. If
this is a problem for you consider net/xorp-devel

Hey! Thanks.

I didn't have that much time to look at it originally and I usually try to
stick to non-devel based distributions but I think in the case of this
software I will end up making an exception.

Problem lays between a overnight away from desk install and coming back a
week later to configure it.

Thanks for pointing this out.
