K, I thin I;m on the track of something ehre. Let me expalin. I put those
lines in /etc/make.conf, and decided to make certain my packages db was up
to date, so I delted /var/db/pkg/pkg.db and ran pkgdb -u to rebuild it
then I tried to do a portupgade -fRr galeon. I got the following error
message:
black# portupgrade -fRr galeon
Stale dependency: galeon-1.2.7_1 --> fontconfig-2.1_2 -- manually run
'pkgdb -F' to fix (-O disallowed when -R is given).
So, I thought I would go check on that I went to
/usr/ports/x11-fonts/fontconfig and did a make install. At this point I was
reminded of a proble that had come up a week or so ago during an upgrade,
and I ahd ignored (yes I know a bad idea).
In ant case what ahppens is thta the build goes fine, but the " Generating
temporary packing list" step, ahngs forever! I left it runing over night
the first time, just to be certain.
So where do I go from here?
Oh, I guess you were correct all along, it is a font problem of some sort.
How can I straighten this out?
