The X11R6 symlink will only be relevant to programs (or port install "recipes") that haven't made the transition yet. On my system (very old) this symlink is still present because the installation is full of old software. :-) --=20 Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
