thank all again for helping earlier, but now, closer to finishing, i get the following:

-----------------------------------------------------

the only thing i can think of is that perhaps something with xfree86. since i have a working install of apple's X11, i chose (during the dependency stage) for only system-xfree86 to be installed as a placeholder. and i think that part worked, because when it was compiling, it reported finding apple's X11 and said everything was okay.

any ideas on this one? and i'll keep a sharper eye out for typos this time.
