+
+ The XFREE86_VERSION variable is deprecated and has been replaced by the
+ X_WINDOW_SYSTEM variable. X_WINDOW_SYSTEM may be set to xorg, xfree86-4, or
+ xfree86-3. X_WINDOW_SYSTEM defaults to xorg on FreeBSD-current. If you are
+ switching to xorg, you should follow this set of commands to cleanly upgrade:
+
+ pkg_delete -f /var/db/pkg/imake-4* /var/db/pkg/XFree86-*
+ cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg && make install
+ pkgdb -F
+
+ Users of -stable or older -current can switch to X.Org by setting
+ X_WINDOW_SYSTEM=xorg in make.conf and following the same process.
