This box, however, has been my main workstation since FreeBSD 4.3-Rel, and I've got Gnome applications that were installed since before Gnome-2 was released, and I'm not entirely certain whether or not I could simply upgraded to Gnome-2.2 and not have to "do anything" for these already installed Gnome-1 ports. Specifically, these are: evolution-1.2.4 gaim-0.61 AbiWord-gnome-1.0.5 gnumeric-1.0.13 dia-0.91 guppi-0.40.3_2 Needless to say there *are* others, as well as dependencies that I've not mentioned here. I've read the FAQ and docs, but haven't found one that addresses this issue explicitly. Could I really simply, as the FAQ says: " make sure your GNOME 1.4 ports are up-to-date, then remove the following GNOME 1.4 packages from the system: gnomecore sawfish gnomeapplets gnomemedia gtop libgtop nautilus gedit xalf bugbuddy gnomegames gnomeutils gdm eog ggv After those packages are removed, you can build GNOME 2.2 per the instructions listed above"?
