I based this on what worked for me, but I checked anyway. I will clarify that the dependency is between libgnutls on libgpg-error- it was clear in my mind anyway. I have a brain to mouth disfunction... or fingers :) objdump -x ...libgnutls.so.26: NEEDED libgpg-error.so.0 >> For that matter, the acroread port needs to depend on the libcups >> too.
