Hello,

I'm afraid the combination you use is **TOTALLY** unsupported and not
viable (you only can upgrade in FreeBSD, but not downgrade from 3.x to
2.2.x)

If you really want to use 2.2.x, you must install it on a new, fresh
partition, being sure that there are no leftovers of 3.x.

After you reinstall 2.2.8-S, tell us if you are still seeing problems
with ccd. (however, if you do find a bug in 2.2.x, it's very unlikely
that it will be solved quickly - 3.x is the presently supported branch)

	TfH

PS : what do you miss in a 3.x box ?
