I'll say this one more time. Update your ports. Look at x11/gnome/Makefile. Notice how the PORTVERSION is 1.4, and not 1.2. Notice how a whole bunch of other GNOME ports have been updated. Do NOT intermix GNOME 1.2 and GNOME 1.4 -- remove all traces of GNOME 1.2 from your system. If this is problematic, grab a 4.3-RELEASE CD, do a binary reinstall of your entire system, grab the latest ports tree, then cd /usr/ports/x11/gnome; make install clean and wait a few hours. Then start adding your other GNOME-related ports back. > It worked for most of my gnomeapps, but for some like yamt it didn't.
