If you do "pkg_info" after your install, you will see the list of ports that you installed. I'm guessing you installed a package(s) that has a dependency on glib, and the glib package was installed. Hence why you need to either uninstall/reinstall the glib port, or use a port management tool like portmaster to upgrade the installed port. If you do a standard install of just the OS (no packages, no ports), then the output of "pkg_info" will be empty. At that point, if you do "portsnap fetch extract" and install x11/kde4, everything will work. -- Freddie Cash fjwcash@gmail.com
