It's also the only way to go, if you're doing a source upgrade from 4.7 to FreeBSD 5.0-current as the system compiler has changed to gcc3 as well as other base includes which are going to break a lot of apps, as soon as you upgrade some port which a lot of other apps depend on. portupgrade -Rrf '*gnome*'=20 Helped me rebuild my gnome2 desktop without losing any sleep :) It's the only way I know to make sure that every dependency has been recompiled with gcc3 under FreeBSD 5 so that it all works ok. --=20 Khairil Yusof <kaeru@pd.jaring.my> --=-2/a5j63ojoDBP4Vggf1N Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQA99hU6DAqnLW/+/X8RAn1SAKD4EyTgKo+OUXLZVZ7n9wh8TgclXwCgmyj4 cosd60dn9aWricZ64GA0ZdE= =lIlK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-2/a5j63ojoDBP4Vggf1N-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-gnome" in the body of the message
