On the other hand, you've managed to install libXext-6.4.3 which should fail, since it conflicts with mentioned XFree86-libraries. The separate X11 libraries ports are meant as a replacement for 'monolithic' XFree86-libraries and xorg-libraries, but are not (yet) the recommended way to get X11 libraries. Having XFree86-libraries installed will fool libXinerama port into thinking that it already has it's dependencies, but since they are not the right ones, the configure will fail. Dejan
