Thanks again Michael. It worked and the install completed. Seems there = are still references to libexpat.so.4 though as I cant run an xfterm and when= I close the session there is a libexec/ld-elf.so.1:Shared object = "libexpat.so.4" not found error for every time I tried to. Would a make deinstall and make reinstall in /usr/ports/x11-wm/xfce4 fix = it? Thanks for the tip about packages. I was going to pkg_add mozilla next but I'll build it from source = instead. John.
