Gordon Gilbert+ # pkg_delete ruby-1.6.8.2004.07.28_1 ruby16-shim-ruby18-1.8.1.p3 # portupgrade -rf ruby\* The ruby16 stuff is outdated, and should be removed. The problem is likely that the bdb module thinks it is supposed to be working with a different version of ruby. Forcing a reinstall of the ruby stuff should fix that. # Adam -- Adam Weinberger adamw@magnesium.net || adamw@FreeBSD.org adamw@vectors.cx || adamw@gnome.org http://www.vectors.cx
