can't remove one without whacking the other. you'll have to # pkg_deinstall -v xscreensaver-\* which will remove both. then, go install the xscreensaver-4.05 port again. as for the text box that pops up: pkgconfig tells the build process which libraries and header files are needed to build against a certain program. the problem is that pkgconfig is returning something incorrect about library locations. so the options are (1) remove pkconfig, the offending program (2) repair the damage done by pkgconfig. the messagebox tells you to do (1). i told you how to do (2). w0rd. -Adam S.
