On a FreeBSD box, I did a "rm -rf /usr/X11R6" after I already built some packages. Then I changed X11_TYPE to XFree86. When building XFree86-clients, I had a failure because a tool was missing a library. So I ran ldd on my bin/ and lib/lib*so files, I found a few "not found". So I used pkg_delete to remove x11-links (since not needed) and removed the now-broken packages.

/var/db/mountdtab shows mounted NFS shares. "showmount -a" shows same. It may be out-of-date; for example, mine lists shares from a system that has been off for a few days. I added another share to /etc/exports, but "showmount -e" still showed the previous exports list. Sending a HUP signal to mountd process or running "/etc/rc.d/mountd reload" reloads the exports list.
