Fernan, From looking at other ports, like devel/rapidsvn, that support either wxgtk24 or wxgtk26, it appears that it is possible for the Makefile to autodetect which one is installed and adjust the dependencies accordingly. If that is not possible for this port, would it be possible to change the dependency to wxgtk26? -- ********************************************************* Reed A.
