If it was built with imlib-1.9.13, then that is the only version it wants. Ports, on the other hand, look for the library themselves, and not a specific package name. You can get around this by forcing the install. See the man page for details. Be warned that this may cause problems future problems, since the dependencies will be recorded incorrectly. Or try ports... David To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
