Yes, that's the reason and that was what I discovered a few seconds after fireing up 'make install' in /usr/ports/x11/kde; to give one example: it is building KDE 3.4.2 and not 3.4.0 which was used by 5.4-REL; > What is the point in installing a > new release of FreeBSD and using 'old' ports. > > Just install FreeBSD 6.0 and use the packages provided with the RELEASE, > or cvsup your ports tree and do a fresh install of the ports you need. My point was that I don't have a fast Internet link at home to fetch all the (new) sources for the distfiles and I was looking for distfiles on CD which match exactly the 6.0-REL ports collection requirements; matthias -- Matthias Apitz / Sisis Informationssysteme GmbH ein Tochterunternehmen der OCLC PICA B.V.
