If you want to check which port installed lang/gcc44, try pkg_info -xR gcc-4 For example, on my box: % pkg_info -xR gcc-4 Information for gcc-4.5.3.20101223: Required by: CalculiX-2.2 R-2.11.1_1 arpack-96_7 atlas-3.8.3_1,1 blas-1.0_6 lapack-3.3.0_1 lapack95-1.0_5 slatec-4.1 taucs-2.2_6 Try to update ports which depend on gcc44. I think that recently some (most?) of them moved to depend on gcc45. anton -- Anton Shterenlikht Room 2.6, Queen's Building Mech Eng Dept Bristol University University Walk, Bristol BS8 1TR, UK Tel: +44 (0)117 331 5944 Fax: +44 (0)117 929 4423
