When I type: pkg_info -R libiconv-1.9.2_1 it shows many of the packages (ettercap too) so it is required by ettercap to work properly, yes? And when I type pkg_info -r ettercap it shows libiconv as a dependant, it mean a package which is required to work ettercap properly, yes? And that I have always thought -r option with portupgrade was all right for me. -- greetings Marek [marek@staszic.eu.org] "A false sense of security is worse than insecurity" -- Steve Gibson
