# NOTE: I have been enlightened by `pkgsrc`
This script was originally my own hacky way of locally installing
things that I built from source or things that I generally did not
want polluting my system's `/bin` directories. I recently found out
about `pkgsrc`, and that has since replaced my need for this script
with very few exceptions. There are certain things that are not
available in `pkgsrc`, and other times you may want to build the
latest `trunk/master/main` version instead of the stable release.
