Hi! I'm not a gnome user. That is to say that I've never installed GNOME myself. However, I use a number of programs that depends on gnome libraries or components (USE_GNOME or WANT_GNOME set to yes in their Makefiles). The two that come to my mind now are gaim (net/gaim) and dia (/graphics/dia). But I may have others around. Upon trying to upgrade gaim to 0.76_1, portupgrade needs to update glib to glib-2.0.400 (glib-2.4.0) and then says that if I'm not following the instructions outlined in faq26 I should cancel the upgrade. So I did. My question is then: should I follow faq26 and run the gnome update script? I don't want to end up with GNOME installed on my machine. Would the script only update installed components and libraries? Thank in advance for any suggestion or clarification, Fernan PS: please CC me since I'm not subscribed to the list -- F e r n a n A g u e r o http://genoma.unsam.edu.ar/~fernan
