Was also true for me to crash the 9.0 system with dependencies inconsistency after some time. But! Try 9.1-RC3 and use PORTINSTALL (ports-mgmt/portupgrade port) - see how beautiful life become when you only type what program you wand and it gets installed from BINARY PACKAGES with all necessary dependencies :-) So far I have no problem at all with portinstall on two machines running 9.1-RC3 for some weeks. PORTINSTALL should become a standard equipment of FreeBSD :-) Best regards :-) Tomek -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info
