You have python-1.6 installed, you need to remove it and replace it with python-2.0 This issue is not limited to GNOME, but all python-related ports when python-1.6 was summarily executed by its maintainer, and modifications made to bsd.python.mk that results in weird and wonderful errors like this. A little more of a changeover period would have helped, along with a HEADS UP, but that's water under the bridge now. Remove anything that depends on python, pkg_delete python-1.6, install python-2.0 (install python15 first if you need it, both these ports install a bin/python, rather than taking the tcl/tk approach, which can result in weird stuff happening), then rebuild those packages that you deleted. -aDe -- Ade Lovett, Austin, TX. ade@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD: The Power to Serve http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
