I have several programs on my PC that require the newer version - Bison-2.3; however, there are also some programs present that require the older version. Both versions cannot coexist on the same machine apparently. When doing an update, using either portmanager or portupgrade, it seems that first one version has to be deinstalled and the other version installed to allow programs that depend on them to be updated. Then as the update progresses, the reverse happens. Is there anyway I can force any program that depends on 'Bison' to use the newer version? I have tried checking out the Makefile for some of the affected programs, but it is just not something I understand well enough to accomplish. -- White Hat pigskin_referee@yahoo.com ____________________________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
