Please report the problem to gnome@FreeBSD.org [maintainer] and attach the "/usr/ports/x11-fonts/libXft/work/libXft-2.1.6/config.log" including the output of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea t= o provide an overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. an `ls /var/db/pkg`). *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11-fonts/libXft. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-4-clients. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-4.

As for how I am doing it, as I said in previous emails, I am building from the meta port XFree86-4, and when I start the build process nothing else is installed. It is a completely clean installation. Btw, this has just recently occurred. Before I downloaded the mini-iso, installed, cvs'uped and everything was built nicely from the ports. That wa= s just a couple of days ago. I then cvsup'ed, make clean'ed the whole port tree to remove any temporary source code, the uninstalled all packages. I then proceeded to re-install everything, starting with XFree86-4, which is where I have found problems a= s there is a conflict/issue between XFree86-4-client, the requirement for Xft= 2 and Xft2 dependency on xrender.pc which although exists in XFree86-4-library, isn't found by Xft2 installation as there is no xrender.pc present in the /usr/X11R6/libdata/pkgconfig path.
