I tried to build editors/abiword, but it failed for lack of libwpg-0.1 and libwpd-0.8. pkg info -a | grep -n "libwp" produces 314:libwpd-0.9.9_2 Tools for importing and exporting WordPerfect(tm) documents 315:libwpg-0.2.2_3 Library and tools to work with WordPerfect Graphics (WPG) files So it looks like I have the required dependencies, but the configure script seemed to be looking for an earlier version. Relevant part of build log is configure: error: Package requirements ( libgsf-1 >= 1.12 libwpg-0.1 >= 0.1.0 libwpd-0.8 >= 0.8.0 ) were not met: Package libwpg-0.1 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libwpg-0.1.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'libwpg-0.1', required by 'world', not found Package 'libwpd-0.8', required by 'world', not found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables WPG_CFLAGS and WPG_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. ===> Script "configure" failed unexpectedly. Is this a bug in the configure script or FreeBSD ports' patches? I could cd /usr/local/libdata/pkgconfig and ln -s libwpg-0.2.pc libwpg-0.1.pc ln -s libwpd-0.9.pc libwpd-0.8.pc and thereby give the configure script what it's looking for, a kludge with no certainty of success. Maybe delete the symbolic links afterward. Tom
