And often fails to be built if you have old versions of some packages it depends on. (I had similar problems two weeks ago) So, it could better to use portupgrade/portinstall utilities. portupgrade -N -R gnome2 Will install gnome2 first upgrading all packages gnome2 is dependent on. However, be carefull - recursive upgrading could download lots of source archives. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
