All the stuff is configurable with "make config". But how should someone know, that this is specially this time necessary. I 've mplayer installed, a long time ago. All portupgrades were trouble-free, since now. It COULD be trouble-free, if any information about the new knobs will be transfered to the users (e.g. in UPDATING). A Tip that it is better to run "make config", would be enough. Heino
