If "make -k check" succeeded, then you can run "make install" to install the tools and documentation under /usr/local. If you'd prefer to install under something like $HOME/free-software, repeat the build procedure using e.g., ./configure --prefix=$HOME/free-software && make && make install > How do I create the a coreutils package that I > can add using pkgadd? I've never prepared a package to be added via pkgadd.
