Basically, that is what I stated. Simply have the "base" version mirror the "port's" version. Another, perhaps even simpler method would be to have the "port's" version [overwrite|replace] the base system if a user decides to install the port's version. A new user could be given the option of installing the older "base" system or the newer "port's" version when first installing FreeBSD. This problem is NOT unsolvable; however, for whatever reason, it doesn't seem to be getting any traction either. It sort of reminds me of a problem with the "slapd" rc file that has never been ratified. -- Carmel
