I thought that maybe by changing everything at once, I would avoid mismatched libraries. Someone should write a book on all this stuff, and explain it thoroughly, with various case examples. When I use the old slow way, I never get an error - when I use portsnap, I do. This makes me inclined to never use portsnap, regardless of how fast it is. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
