+It's not possible to build a single tnftp binary with both IPv6 and
+SOCKS5 support.
+
+The binary with IPv6 support is built and installed as
+"/usr/bin/tnftp.ipv6", with a symlink to "/usr/bin/tnftp". If
+dante is installed, a 2nd binary is built and installed as
+"/usr/bin/tnftp.socks". You can run it as "tnftp.socks", or, if desired,
+adjust the symlink so the SOCKS binary is run by default:
+
+# rm -f /usr/bin/tnftp
+# ln -s tnftp.socks /usr/bin/tnftp
+
+The package will still uninstall cleanly.
+
+If you have dante installed but do not want to build tnftp with SOCKS,
+you can export SOCKS=no in the environment.
