I just upgraded to KDE 3.5, which took about two days of= =20 compiling, while in complete ignorance of this issue. It now relies on fam.= =20 So it looks like fam for me. I am going to go ahead with compiling. Your method sounds reasonable but my= =20 scant knowledge of FreeBSD makes me want to be as conservative as possible. I have amended make.conf with a WITH_FAM_SYSTEM=3Dfam line and put a line i= n=20 pkgtools.conf=20 MAKE_ARGS =3D { '*' =3D> 'WITH_FAM_SYSTEM=3Dfam', 'editors/openoffice.org-*' =3D> '-DWITHOUT_MOZILLA LOCALIZED_LANG= =3Den-US' Make clean in the openoffice.org-2.0 ports folder currently yields =3D=3D=3D> Cleaning for fam-2.6.9_6 So hopefully after this monster compiles, I will get no gamin-related error= =20 messages. Hopefully?
