I just saw this, it's possible it might be what John thinks, but this same, exact thing happens every time you try to update gimp without being very thorough about erasing the previous gimp before building the new one. Just doing a pkg_delete is *not* good enough. You have to get rid of every possible vestige of gimp, in various places, including any .gimprc directories, any places in /usr/local or /usr/X11R6, stuff like that. The problem is a very enthusiastic configuration script that gimp uses. Go back over your system, be *extremely* certain that all the old gimp is off your system, then build the new one, it'll work. > > Roddie > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message > > ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@glue.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and picnic (FreeBSD-current) (301) 220-2114 | and jaunt (NetBSD). ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
