What you have should be fine. These dependencies were generated based on the packages installed on the machine the release was built on. Unfortunately (or fortunately from my point of view :) said machine is pretty much always up to date with the latest and greatest, hence the quite recent version dependencies. > I don't mind doctoring up +CONTENTS to allow the ports I already have, if > I know they'll work.

You shouldn't need to doctor +CONTENTS, just use the -f flag to pkg_add. > I'm running 4.5-REL-p24.10 (the ".10" are SAs I've applied since 4.5 was > EOL'd). Will these packages run under FreeBSD 4.5? They should do, yes. > And finally, how to install these? Just run 'pkg_add diablo-jre-1.3.1.0' > and 'pkg_add diablo-jdk-1.3.1.0', like any other package? Yep. Probably pkg_add -f, to avoid version dependency issues. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org
