I basically removed all gnome related ports as so many have been updated, and rebuilt from scratch. This takes a long time. I noticed problems with the desktop and so I removed ~/.gnome. There were other problems as noted in my earlier mail, so I am attempting a build from July 7. I am starting gnome via the line gnome-session in ~/.xsession. You might try setting up a server to do clean builds - I can't get gnome to even build half the time anymore. If you just upgrade the recent ports manuall or with portupgrade you won't notice missing dependencies. I would suggest at least trying a clean build in a 'fresh' jail - you can test port builds in a jail w/p hosing up your main system - before checking in huge changes! I really do appreciate the work on gnome but portupgrade is not going to catch all of the problems. I like to keep my ports up to date and don't mind testing, but gnome can be broken for days at a time - xscreensaver still does not work properly and hasn't for about a month. - Mike H.

Could you please be more verbose wrt what you did to upgrade and how you are trying to start GNOME.
