Some missing dependency maybe? > a crude workaround is: # pwd /usr/local/lib # ln -s libpng16.so.16.16.0 libpng15.so.15 However, this seems to be the situation that pkgng was specifically designed to avoid. An update to one package breaks another. Paraview is marked broken now, but pkg upgrade went happily ahead and upgraded png, making the installed paraview package unusable. Unless this is some oversite on somebody's part, this seems to be a flaw in pkgng design. Anton
