Before upgrading to glip-1.2.8, I tried to pkg_delete glib-1.2.6, but I get this message and can't go any further: # pkg_delete glib-1.2.6 pkg_delete: package `glib-1.2.6' is required by these other packages and may not be deinstalled: gtk-1.2.6 In this case, can I just overwrite it by pkg_add glib-1.2.8 without pkg_delete glib-1.2.6? If not, what should I do here? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. -Paul To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
