One additional piece of information, when something strange like this happens, check cvsweb at http://cvsweb.freebsd.org/. The history of freebsd source is there as a series of web pages and, in this case, you can see where gimp-devel was moved into gimp. When that has been done and you are having problems, you have to assume up front that your supfile or mirror is messed up. That may not be true but it is a starting point. Mirrors occasionally get locked up and the only way you can find out is to try a different one and watch what happens. Kent -- Kent Stewart Richland, WA http://users.owt.com/kstewart/index.html
