After a few days of portupgrading and cussing, I got things updated, but portupgrade takes eons because of these messages: ===> Registering installation for eel-2.22.1 pkg_create: dependency loop detected for package libgnomeui-2.22.01:x11-toolkits/libgnomeui pkg_create: dependency loop detected for package gnome-desktop-2.22.0:x11/gnome-desktop pkg_create: dependency loop detected for package gnome-desktop-2.22.0:x11/gnome-desktop ===> Cleaning for eel-2.22.1 Of course, nothing here tells me what is precisely looping. Is it an immediate loop or indirect loop?

Manually run 'pkgdb -Fu'. It might help.

Following the information in /usr/pors/UPDATING takes care of the dependency loop... (And yes it includes pkgdb -Ff) So it got me further, but i still have issues with compoiling gnome2, gnome2-power-tools and evince. I belive evince is the showstopper here with: checking for gsapi_new_instance in -lgs... no configure: error: You need libgs in order to compile libspectre Am i the only one? Or is everyone else also waiting for a final update taking care of this?

I don't have problems compiling libspectre or evince. Have you updated your ports tree to the latest? My box is 7-STABLE/amd64.

Yes it is libspectre haveing a hard time to compile, evince and gnome depend on it. Yes a completly fresh ports from today and im running on 6.3-STABLE from March the 16'th.

Show us the output of 'pkg_info -IX ghostscript'.

ghostscript-gnu-7.07_17 GNU Postscript interpreter

It explains... ahze only has change in ghostscript-gpl to enable with library by default. Is there any reason why you don't use ghostscript-gpl instead (/usr/ports/UPDATING at 20070405)? If you want to keep ghostscript-gnu, try to reinstall it with WITH_SHLIB. I personal don't know if libspectre will work with ghostscript-gnu.

Cheers, Mezz
