I have about 1200 ports on my laptop and just rebuilding did fine for them. Everything built correctly and all that I have worked fine. That includes all of gnome2, most of gnome2-powertools, and all of gnome2-office. Since it seems like you are dealing with the same ports, I'm baffled as to why you have having problems with them. My gdm-binary (I assume a typo in your message) does not link to libiconv.so.3 and runs fine. N.B. The iconv issue is NOT painless as a few ports make use of features in GNU iconv that are extensions of the POSIX standard for iconv. These ports have a serious issues and am unsure of how they will be handled. None of the ports I have used have this issue. I found the db42 deletion far more annoying. I'm still trying to clean all of that up. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer, Retired E-mail: rkoberman@gmail.com
