What's the status of the port(s)? Are they currently buildable and 'usable'? Are there any known "gotchas" to watch out for? I planned on deleting darn near every port on the system before starting the massive compile-fest (had to do this for GNOME 1.2 -> 1.4 as well). Just curious to see what "state" things are in. -Jr -- John & Jennifer Reynolds johnjen@reynoldsnet.org http://www.reynoldsnet.org/ Sr. Component Design Engineer, ICG, Intel Corp. jreynold@sedona.ch.intel.com Running FreeBSD since 2.1.5-RELEASE.
