Unless you use modules present only on 4 . . . Ahh, but it *does* matter. Xpm is included in 4. You have to use graphics/xpm port with 3. This means packages like emacs, kde, etc, if installed on top of XF86-4, will trash the Xpm headers and libraries (quietly). There may be other cases, but I just fscked by this one. I think we need a way of selectively installing things at pkg_add time. Urk. -- Alan Eldridge "Dave's not here, man."
