In the past, it really was. But I think it was possible to add it via pkg_add. It's some time ago, but memory serves me right, I did pkg_add -r lame because it was possible... if there was a way to find out if some software has been installed via port OR package, I could find this out. :-) Because of the few dependencies, it's no problem to use the port to install it first, then pkg_add -r the KDE 4 packages. Maybe install nasm prior to make. The Makefile of lame still states: RESTRICTED= patent issues, see http://www.mp3licensing.com/ If licensing problems are still present, there may be no way to put a precompiled package onto the FTP server. -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
