An example is the gedit program that apparently couldn't build as a port = from the TOOLKIT disks because of the already obsolete distfile, but = that also didn't seem to exist as a package on any of the OS disks! Of = course it's on one of the "TOOLKIT Packages" disks, but that would = apparently create conflicting dependencies such as Gnome 1.2 along side = the already installed Gnome 1.4!!!
