I install expat and gettext from packages. Then I install *anything* that depends on those, and they need to be rebuilt. The expat build fails. The gettext fail as a result, and then all the rest do as well. I'm not sure how up to date they are if the ports that depend on them want to rebuild them. Information for expat-1.95.6_1.tgz: Files: /usr/local/man/man1/xmlwf.1.gz /usr/local/bin/xmlwf /usr/local/include/expat.h /usr/local/lib/libexpat.a /usr/local/lib/libexpat.so /usr/local/lib/libexpat.so.4 gettext 0.13.x wants expat.5, so that's not as up to date as it might be. I've dropped a note to the maintainer: perhaps there's something he can point out. -- Paul Beard paulbeard [at] mac.com --Apple-Mail-15--599350425--
