Thats weird. When I updated using cvsup it updated all of the ports in my

/usr/ports directory. I then ran "make install" on /usr/ports/x11/xorg, it then

looks for dri-7.0.1,2.tbz, but that file isn't in

amd64/packages-6.2-release/latest or amd64/packages-6.2-release/graphics/. It is

only in the packages-7-release/graphics directory. 

Why would xorg require a app that isn't in my current build? How do I get around

it if I cant use the packages-7-release files?



Thanks for you help
