But that is why you use things like portupgrade or portmanage. You have dependancies and sometimes, not all of the time, they have to be updated before you build the main application. If you do the updating out of sequence (a>b>c>d) such as update b before you update d, you may have to go back and force the update because the flag to update is no longer there. A "portupgrade -rR" won't fix what you have already broken. You have to force it with -fr. That will take a long time and you probably can't recover any other way because the package site only has firefox-1.5_4,1. For example, nspr and cairo build just fine on my system. I cvsuped and tried it on 6-stable. It sounds like you are in that position now. If there are a number of changes and it looks like an interface is affected, I run "portupgrade -purR xxx". Michael will probably tell you how to do it with portmanage. I think like portupgrade and use it.
