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

I've never prepared a package to be added via pkgadd.
