I had a similar problem. I have fixed it for the most part by rebuilding and reinstalling all ports that were dependent on libpng. You can do this really easy by using portinstall from the portupgrade port. This is probably not the quickest solution, but everything appears to be clean now. -Jake On Thursday 20 September 2001 10:03 am, Salvo Bartolotta wrote: > Dear FreeBSD porters, > > A couple of days ago, I installed un updated version of png: viz., > png-1.2.0.
