I am trying to install kde-3 via package add. I can not because /var is filling
up. After a few attemps I tried:
pkg_add -p /usr/tmp -t /usr/tmp/instmp.XXXXXX -r kde
I can still watch /var/tmp fill up. I finally seemed to make things work by
setting PKG_TMPDIR. I guess I do not understand the purpose of the -p and -t
operands. Any pointers appreciated, I am quite lost on this.
