I finally got the correct sources from the stable tree tonight, and pkg_add seems to be fixed, but my problems with xemacs continues. Using the -n option with pkg_add, I got these errors: xemacs-19.14 depends on 'jpeg-6a' and was not found xemacs-19.14 depends on 'png-0.89c and was not found Previously, trying to install without the -n option (after fixing pkg_add), I got these error messages plus others about directories not existing. It seems sometimes there are two or three levels in a directory tree that don't exist. I.e. where pkg_add expected to find something like /usr/lib/?1/?2/emacs, my existing directory tree doesn't even go as far as ?1. Any advice? Thanks, Michael
