Dear folks, As I was trying to get out of the other mess that I got into. See thread: Attachment Re: [ HEADS UP ] Ports unstable for the next 10 day I have encountered thread subject. i had kde, and kde could not find it, so I removed KDE and then have added gnome both ways: pkg_add -r gnome2 and /usr/ports/...... and ran portmaster -a and still have error message in Subject line. I am wondering if I shot myself in the foot. I have had previous experience before with FreeBSD 5.3 and FreeBSD 6.0, but those had KDE 3.5 series and none of these errors popped up. What should I do? I am thinking about reinstalling system? I can't cure the illness that I have encountered. I checked via google and I found: http://www.opennet.ru/openforum/vsluhforumID15/3041.html IT is in Russian, but I could follow it someway in the suggestions, still no joy :( Advice/Suggestions are welcome. Should I just go with pulling the trigger and reinstalling? System is AMD64, 8.0-RELEASE-p2 Regards, Antonio P.S. I feel bad about doing this, but I have tried for several days to fix the issues. I had a working desktop, but then ran the cvsup/? command(suggested in the other thread) and fix the other issue and made things worse could not log into KDE and then tried installing GNOME to at least have a working desktop but not good. I have two other machines running FreeBSD 8.0 but no updates, I don't want to screw up. The ports used to work well, apparently now things are different?
