Looking at graphics/py-cairo history: June 17: was updated to 1.8.4 June 19: required python 2.6+ You most likely installed it before that, and probably before python 2.6 was set as the default version. The message is a bit misleading but as somebody else said, the py25- prefix in that case comes from your installed version of python. Check entry 20090608 about the python upgrade in /usr/ports/UPDATING. --=20 Florent Thoumie flz@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD Committer
