ports updated 11/25/2002
>Description:
	
I used portupgrade to update mozilla to the latest version. libgtk
failed to update because running glib12-config resulted in a symbolic
link loop, which was apparently caused by the upgrade to glib12 a few
moments before.

[root@onceler]# ls -l glib12-config 
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  26 Nov 26 11:07 glib12-config@ -> /usr/local/bin/glib-config
[root@onceler]# ls -l glib-config 
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  13 Dec  4  2000 glib-config@ -> glib12-config



>How-To-Repeat:
	

upgrade glib12 from the prior version.

>Fix:

	

remove the above two files and force reinstall of glib12.  then the
two files exist properly.
