That was what I was doing; but I was building net/gaim on its own and I couldn't figure out how to force the build with evolution support. Joe pointed me in the right direction. I'm still not decided on whether to start a completely fresh jail on each package rebuild, or just use portupgrade for the non-complete desktop upgrades and only 'reset' the jail for GNOME 2.6 -> 2.8 alike transitions. --Stijn --=20 There are of course many problems connected with life, of which some of the most popular are 'Why are people born?', 'Why do they die?', and `Why do they spend so much of the intervening time wearing digital watches?' -- Douglas Adams, "The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy" --6J7GEvtanOfV9oXA Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBtjThY3r/tLQmfWcRAlV0AKCkX+PCIhJQaQh+pIN8eg2/3ZhykgCeO+O4 /WR2kNqluXL/0FB7P3GrnTY= =oFWy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --6J7GEvtanOfV9oXA--
