Hello all, I am new to working with the ports system and have created a port that depends on cmake, bison v2.3, QT 3.3.x and X11. I had previously installed cmake and QT using packages. Since the bison 2.3 port appeared to be rather recent, I csup'd my ports tree before attempting to test my port build and install. After the upgrade, cmake was no longer able to locate the QT libraries. I removed the QT libraries and attempted to install them from ports which yielded an error related to /usr/X11R6 not being a symlink ( or something like that ). I ran another test after installing 6.2 and immediately updating the ports tree. I was able to build and install all dependencies and my port. Does this have to do with the /usr/X11R6 path being depreciated? If so, is there any special settings I could add to the port that allows it to still find dependencies in the old /usr/X11R6 prefix? Could be nice for users that have installed 6.2 packages before updating their ports tree. Maybe this kind of setup is just unsupported? Thanks in advance, -Matthew
