From portupgrade(1): o Rebuild and reinstall all the dependent packages of png that had been installed prior to png: portupgrade -fr png -x '>=png' And lo, it did. What a lovely tool. Aparently, I'd missed gnomecanvas, gnomeaudio, gconf, glibwww and libgda, all of which depend on libpng. -Andrew- -- _______________________________________________________________________ | -Andrew J.
