I get the same lines as above except for the begining "/home/reed/pkg"
I have "/usr/pkg"  .

===============================================
/usr/pkg/share/mk/bsd.own.mk:.elif exists(/usr/pkg/etc/mk.conf )
/usr/pkg/share/mk/bsd.own.mk:.elif exists(/etc/mk.conf)

alright :-)
Now where do we go from here?

Also where do I get the info that for a certain package I need to
configure the mk.conf file and so on? Is there any file in pkgsrc that
i should read before compiling the package by make?


Thankyou so much once again :-)

Kind regards
