You are welcome.

Not too late. But sometimes it can be hardwork. And sometimes dangerous --
because could accidently deinstall an essential package. (Soon I hope to
use /usr for only essential packages and /usr/pkg for everything else.)

I have a webpage at http://linux.pugetsoundtechnology.com/faq/ about some
of my plans of using LOCALBASE=/usr. The downloads are out-of-date and I
need to put up a new mirror with some newer packages.
