(Hmm, I wonder why there hasn't been an 8.2 update then...) I installed the version from ports, which was recently updated, but now I'm not sure how to get my other ports to use that port instead of the core libraries. Is it sufficient to restart the apps (apache in particular), or do I need to recompile things? -- Randal L.
