Thanks a lot Adam . I do run portsnap fetch update every morning so I guess
my ports are up to date. I had no idea gkrellm had become gkrellm2 because
I have been using  gkrellm for many years and only recently decided to
update it.  Is there something which I should do to know that a port has
changed names? I couldnt find anything in UPDATING but as you said the
switch happened a long time back it wouldnt make sense to check UPDATING.
