On the off chance that someone hasn't helped you already (or you haven't yet found the answer): The way I got past this was to add the following line to /etc/make.conf: WITH_FAM_SYSTEM=fam Next, run 'pkgdb -F'. When it prompts with the stale dependency message, set the dependency to your installed fam package. (I cheat and just use fam<TAB> and let the completion catch it for me. Be sure to tell it to replace All so you don't get prompted again. The /etc/make.conf line will keep you from getting into that pickle again. Don't be too nervous about replacing this dependency because gamin supports a subset of fam's features, so you won't lose anything. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFD6jSkUn6S0hqD4tsRAiWoAJ41fdNVW7G+V/LVTN14ZKw6Ix4teQCeLDxn EdDB6dgxHpo3AI6TGH9rl1s= =reze -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
