At someone's recommendation, I built and installed mergemaster to
facilitate upgrading from 2.2.7-STABLE to 3.0.  When I ran it as
recommended (e.g. 'mergemaster -cv'), this was the result:

/usr/local/sbin/mergemaster -cv

*** The directory specified for the temporary root environment,
    /var/tmp/temproot, exists. This can be a security risk if untrusted
    users have access to the system.

  Use 'd' to delete the old /var/tmp/temproot and continue
  Use 't' to select a new temporary root directory
  Use 'e' to exit mergemaster

  Default is to use /var/tmp/temproot as is

How should I deal with this? [Use the existing /var/tmp/temproot] ^C
news.kersur.net:/root# rm -rf /var/tmp/temproot/
news.kersur.net:/root# /usr/local/sbin/mergemaster -cv

*** Creating the temporary root environment in /var/tmp/temproot
 *** /var/tmp/temproot ready for use
 *** Creating and populating directory structure in /var/tmp/temproot

 *** Press [Enter] or [Return] key to continue
