Before you ask we don’t want to put KDE 4.4.0 in the ports tree before FreeBSD 7.3 was released. </quote> It would be nice to get the new version installed prior to the release of FreeBSD-7.3, IMHO. Unless I am drastically wrong, installing the new version will require a massive update of libraries, etc, similar to the recent 'jpeg' update. It would make for a much cleaner update to the new FreeBSD version if this procedure preceded the update rather than postdated it. However, with the 'freeze' now in effect, there obviously is not chance of that happening. -- Jerry gesbbb@yahoo.com |::::======= |::::======= |=========== |=========== | Money is the root of all evil, and man needs roots.
