I thought this was a problem with my ports tree, but it is not the case. 
I did not want to reinstall everything again. Fortunately, I had another 
FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE machine. I did exactly the same things there ( 
portsnap fetch ; portsnap update; pkdb -Ff ; portupgrade -rf 
pkg-config\* ) and I got the same problem again. I cannot install ee1 
because of the same linker error. I also tried this:

messias# portupgrade -a
Stale dependency: gail-1.9.3 <-- gnome2-fifth-toe-2.12.3 -- manually run 
'pkgdb -F' to fix, or specify -O to force.
messias# pkgdb -F
--->  Checking the package registry database
messias#

Although the dependency error was different on the other machine, it is 
the same kind. I think I did everything right, and now I have two 
machines where I cannot move forward. Can this be a bug in portupgrade, 
or FreeBSD? How it is possible that portupgrade thinks there is a stale 
dependency, but pkgdb cannot find it?

Regards,
