I'm trying to use pkgsrc on Linux (Ubuntu 8.04, to be precise).  One
problem I ran into is that X11BASE appears to be set incorrectly.  I've
worked around this by setting it to /usr in the environment.  Is that
the right thing to do?  /etc/mk.conf?  /usr/pkg/etc/mk.conf?  Was
bootstrap supposed to figure out the proper setting and put it in
mk.conf?
