Pretty much, yes. You may want to get rid of what''s under X11 so you
don''t run
into trouble.

As long as you do a backup of the relevant stuff beforehand... Try
''make -n
install'' instead of ''make install'' and examine the
output. -n does a
simulation so you can see what files will be overwritten.

Hello!

I have a few questions that I just couldn''t seem to find answers to
online.

1.  sgmlspl.  What is it?  Where is it?  =D

2.  The install file says to install with the standard ./configure
--prefix=/usr...however, X11 is installed...if I install into /usr I''ll
have
2 copies of everything yes?

Is it safe to ./configure --prefix=/usr/X11R6 to have your fontconfig sort
of "take over" X11''s?

Thanks for the info.
