That it extracts jpeg and png is a feature and is required to build gs5 (don't ask me why, I don't want to know). If it actually *installs* both those ports, there's something amyss with your bsd.port.mk. What does the $Id$ line say? Same for point 2. New (as in "within the last couple of months") bsd.port.mk's should handle this. Satoshi
