This question more appropriate to -ports, but at least marginally concerns -stable. I'm not saying this doesn't belong here, but there have far too many ports specific questions on this list. Myself and others have pointed this out. In many cases the questions were answered very recently on -ports. If you use ports you should be reading -ports. When in doubt re-compile them. If you track -cvs-all (like you are *supposed* to), then re-compile them only when you changes to libraries. The pending version bump is by far the best example, but re-doing the ports you install is a good blanket rule when a commit has "lib" in it. Call it the "when in doubt" rule. ;) As for how, check the archives for -stable and -ports. ;) Jeff Mountin - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems/Network Administrator FreeBSD - the power to serve To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
