Yes.  At this point, you must update everything that depends on pango
(and probably glib20 as well).  Your best bet is to go to
http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome and read the upgrade instructions.

If you're running a 5.3-BETA, you can get the latest OOo packages from
your local FreeBSD FTP mirror after you complete the 2.6 upgrade.
