Somehow you managed to install a FreeBSD 4 package onto a FreeBSD 5 system. pkg_delete it, then run "pkg_add -r ghostview" to fetch the correct package from ftp.freebsd.org, or cd into /usr/ports/print/ghostview and run "make install" if you want to build it yourself. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
