I just shelled into one of my= =20 office machines running the same update; it's no longer online. The box in= =20 question is a new AMD 64 with 1GB of regestered ram, that has been rock sol= id=20 running 6-stable. When I left last night, It was updating gnome and kde fro= m=20 current ports. I'll drive over after dinner and see what's really happening= =2E=20 =46or now you probably should just cvsup with the date tag set before the g= nome=20 update, delete and it all and start over. On this box, I deleted everything= =20 (which already wasn't) Installed the (new) gnome ports, and so far I have=20 basic kde and firefox installed and working. I would have been really nice = if=20 the coders would reveal why this new script was important. I'll probably fi= nd=20 out the hard way.
