They are dynamically loading a library that dynamically loads the old version of libpng. That library isn't part of those ports, which is why rebuilding them didn't solve the problem. You need to find the library in question, and rebuild and reinstall the port that installed it. If you look at <URL: http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/30908 > you'll find patches to the system to make ldd tell you which library is the culprit. <mike -- Mike Meyer <mwm@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
