"A couple of times"? Congratulations...

One should not need this luck, nor this instinct, however.

Until I decide to upgrade gnome, all other gnome-using ports should be cont=
ent=20
with the version of gnome I already have...

This is all patently obvious, I might add. The automatic gio-fam dependency=
=20
should be made smarter and/or optional (depending on which gnome is already=
=20
installed).

Going forward, one hopes, gnome-team will not be so cavalier in forcing=20
upgrades...
