If you do then you will probably have to re-install those packages to get the dependencies back. I believe upgrading xorg-clients and then xterm should work, if only that damn xorg-clients port would compile! I found this link late last night which might help, but haven't tried it myself yet. http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-i386/2005-January/002040.html If you don't want to do all that then you'll have to get the xterm port back to the state it was before cvsup. Either get it from a backup or try portdowngrade. Deleting xterm port *was* a bad idea, sorry. If you had left it alone then you'd be left with working xorg-client and xterm installed and could either chase the fix above at your leisure or wait for someone to fix it officially. Hope that helps, --Alex
