I grabbed the pkgs and will try that next. Doesn't say `pkg_delete kde-3.1b' remove all/most of the the package with warnings for areas that it could not successfully remove? pkg_delete -n kde-3.1b Attempting to remove dependency on package `giflib-3.0' Attempting to remove dependency on package `jpeg-6a' Attempting to remove dependency on package `kdebase-3.1b' Attempting to remove dependency on package `kdegames-3.1b' Attempting to remove dependency on package `kdegraphics-3.1b' Attempting to remove dependency on package `kdelibs-3.1b' Attempting to remove dependency on package `kdemultimedia-3.1b' Attempting to remove dependency on package `kdenetwork-3.1b' Attempting to remove dependency on package `kdesupport-3.1b' Attempting to remove dependency on package `kdeutils-3.1b' Attempting to remove dependency on package `qt-1.31' Attempting to remove dependency on package `uulib-0.5.13' Nope, but it does give you a pretty list :-) Regards, Kevin G.
