Brian, to get you past the problem all you need do is cd /usr/ports/emulators/linux_base-rh-9 make deinstall cd ~ portmanager -u emulators/linux_base-rh-9 is conflicting with emulators/linux_base-8 This output you sent just identified a bug I've been trying to track down for ages! Thanks for sending it! It will be a few days to fix it but I think you will be ok when your remove /linux_base-rh-9. Let me know how it goes ok? -Mike _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
