The only thing I could suggest for gnome2 port is some form of check that GNOME1 desktop components are already installed. I.e. when user does `make' in metaport, the metaport checks for GNOME1 files (say check that gnomecc is installed) and if result is positive then refuses to build. This would provide at least minimal foolproof. -Maxim > > Joe > > > > > 1.
