This wont solve your build problem, but it it will prevent your system becoming flakey and then failing to boot into a working desktop, as happened to me. Portupgrade, unlike portmaster, preserves a copy of old libraries, so software build against the old version will continue to work. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
