I get the same error message as before. I wonder what's making the difference for you... This is frustrating because I removed win32-codecs in order to rebuild avifile without win32... but apparently that can't be done. Now I'm stuck with several ports that won't upgrade due to a dependency on avifile (which still depends on win32-codecs...) with the result that my pgkdb demands to be -F'd.. and I have nothing to replace the missing dependencies with. :( And the worst part is, I don't ever use quicktime.. :P David -- Sure the Almighty created the world in only six days, but He didn't have an established user-base.
