(In certain of the following events, it can't find registration for Xaw3d-1.5, tries to install Xaw3d-1.5, makes Xaw3d-1.5, but can't install it because it is already installed, and dies. I have tried deinstalling and reinstalling Xaw3d-1.5 first. I have cvsupped the ports tree current and deinstalled and reinstalled Xaw3d-1.5. Finally I removed the whole ports tree and downloaded and installed the whole tree from ports.tar.gz. Nothing seems to help, and of course xfm port is right, there is not a file libXaw3d.6, or Xaw3d.6. There is the business in installing Xaw3d-1.5 of making a symbolic link so that the 3d widgets replace the 2d widgets, and I have tried it both ways without being able to get xfm to build. I have similar problems with many x ports. I am running 4.1.1- Stable. So what is the deal? Also, what happened to the handy README.html files? -- Lars Eighner eighner@io.com http://www.io.com/~eighner/ Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.
