I'm no fan of gamin too and if
Just replace the gamin libraries by the fam ones, for example by manually extracting the libraries from the tarball and place them in /usr/local/lib without actually updating the package database. It should work fine with KDE, openoffice, I don't know it works well with programs like courier... > possible I compiled my programs for fam. But this sounds nice ;-) If you want to recompile all stuff just put WITH_FAM_SYSTEM=fam in /etc/make.conf and rebuild all packages using gamin. You have to rebuild all ports because fam and gamin can't be installed together. /Bastiaan _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
