Sorry, but I can't make any sense of manpage of pkg_which, at least for solving my problem. But maybe this is what you want to know: # pkg_info | grep -i freetype freetype2-2.1.7_4 A free and portable TrueType.... That's all there is! I have deleted freetype2 and gimp; reinstalled both again, but I get the same complaint by gimp. I even created a brandnew user on my system, to avoid settings in my homdir; same problem. Gimp keeps complaining on seeing only freetype 2.1.4. Gosh, I'm getting quite desperate. Thanks for help, Rob. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
