So why don't you complain to Sun, who are the people requiring you to click through that stupid license? Or are you merely complaining that the FreeBSD people who work hard to port this stuff for you are attempting to obey the requirements Sun have placed on them? I have compiled versions between 1.1 and 1.4 at different times on my machines, with mo unreasonable problems. If you're not using portupgrade and a recent cvsup of /usr/ports, I'd suggest your problems are self-inflicted. -- Christopher Vance
