It seems that the script may be pkg_libchk instead of pkg_chklib (?) please confirm. I ran pkg_libchk and it looks like a whole boatload of packages need to be replaced, so I decided to skip to the chase and give the update script a 'replace' option.. it checks the package version available in the packages directory on the freebsd site with what's installed, if there's a newer version it downloads it and does the MD5 check, creates an update.sh script to replace (the update script doesn't actually do any udpating!) Anyhow, with 'replace' it will either replace the existing or use the newer if available. I've been using this script to update the system and it works pretty good for me, except when I veer off path and get into ports like with my libpng issue. :) Anyhow, hopefully this will fix it, I'll try it later tonight. Gotta run. -- Waitman Gobble San Jose California USA --bound1339470845--
