Hi, thanks a lot for the quick and kindly help. You all do a good job there, what has to mentioned. The update is working now fine. My only concern now is, how the same ports tree works on different releases. Aren't there library problems to expect, when a port expects a certain library version to compile and when on different releases differnt library versions are in use? Sorry, maybe I have not understood some of the basics philosphy of FreeBSD as I am mainly worked with linux before and there I know these kind of problems. best regards from far old Germany Jens --=20 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------= -- Physikalische und Theoretische Chemie der TU-Braunschweig Jens R=F6der, Hans-Sommer Str.10, 38106 Braunschweig ---------------------------------------------------------------------------= --
