Dear Thom, What I do when something like this happens is: either, 'cd' to the port that is causing the problem, devel/py-orbit2, in this case and type 'make deinstall', than go back to your original port and issue a make again or, 'cd' to the port that is causing the problem, devel/py-orbit2, in this case and type 'make -DFORCE_PKG_REGISTER install clean'. This forces an upgrade of the troublesome port, but may result in a double registered port. This can be checked by issuing 'pkgdb -F' Good luck, Pascal On Fri, 24 Jun 2005 14:17:29 +0200, Thomas Beer wrote > Dear All, > > I'm trying to install gdesklets which depends on > py24-orbit.
