Hi Lowell, thanks for your comments...I'm not trying to install via a package. I'm going into /usr/ports/x11-wm/xfce4 (or gtk20) and typing "make install clean". Afaik this is how to install a port, unless I'm missing something really obvious. This is when the error occurs. I haven't tried installing using packages (pkg_add?). When the make install runs, it recognizes atk 1.6.1 and has no problem with it, but then bails out later saying it can't find 1.0.91. Yes, I ran cvsup on all ports, and the system, from cvsup.freebsd.org (I think that's the correct address). Had no problems doing this. I'll check uname -r when I get home and see if there appears to be a problem there.

I've checked /usr/ports/accessibility/atk and have found that atk1.6.1 exists, and can be installed without problems, however apparently this is not the right version. You could just install gtk2 from the ports instead of from a package, and then it will use whatever atk you have installed. If you install from a package, then obviously you need the same version installed that the package was linked against. I'm running FreeBSD 5.4 and have tried updating via cvs etc, without any Do you mean you updated via cvsup? Or if you actually mean cvs, then where was the cvs repository, and how do you know it was up-to-date? Which collections do you update? luck. It seems strange to me that this dependency problem would exist, as surely a lot of people install GTK2, if not XFCE. Does anyone know of a way to get around this? I'd sort of like to have a gui for my machine :) Note that 5.4 hasn't been released yet, so if you are trying to match the packages against the system, you need to make sure that the packages area still matches your system's release level (uname -r), as it has gone from 5.4-PRERELEASE to 5.4-BETA1, so the 5.4-PRERELEASE directory path no longer exists on the FTP servers.
