>From the /usr/ports/UPDATING entry: 20040313: AFFECTS: users of textproc/expat2 AUTHOR: marcus@FreeBSD.org Users of expat2 (and its many dependencies) should do the following to properly update expat2 and all of its dependencies: portupgrade -rf textproc/expat2 I did the mentioned portupgrade above and a *lot* of packages were reinstalled, among those KDE. I'm not sure in retrospect that I needed to do this as I only installed FreeBSD on this box a couple of months ago. Anyway, since the upgrade Konqueror crashes when started in a directory (core dumps) as a file browser, KDE notifications no longer work (although sound from Gnome apps *do* work -> I have gnome-session-daemon start when I log into KDE) and k3b won't start any longer for starters. What would be the best way to try an rectify this? Reinstall kde from scratch with a 'portupgrade -rf /usr/ports/X11/kde3' or something else entirely? All the aforementioned apps were working prior to the portupgrade command mentioned in UPDATING. -- Cheers, Trey --- Thieves respect property; they merely wish the property to become their property that they may more perfectly respect it. -- G.K.
