For some reason, the other browser malformed the previous posting a few day= s ago. My apologies; also xpi-it_s_all_text is not seen yet in this install, so hopefully this one is not also malformed.<= BR> .... upon reinstall of perl, python, ruby, I almost always upon reinstall encoun= ter left-behind files in /perl5/ , etc, subject them to pkg_which one-liners, and it takes a good= while. (IIRC due to too many paths, as seen below...) ... As well as unexpected breakage in some ports which expect the old paths for= some reason. ... I was wondering if those (perl python ruby) paths could be shortened: # /perl5/ find . -type d | wc -l ( =3D=3D 2900 here) into just a few ... for instance if every file was in one subdir one could = reinstall a few at a time without the excess 'cd' appurtenant to thousands of directories. ... Thanks. J. Bouquet (Apologies if characters stripped from the message making it again practica= lly nonsensical.) =
