i think there could be a problem with python expat module. python 2.3 build expat as one of the multiple packages. python 2.4 does not - its part of core. so this means every python port which uses expat package in a way like this: RUN_DEPENDS= ${MODPY_EXPAT_DEPENDS} and has not defined python version 2.3 will not build, for example: textproc/py-ElementTree textproc/py-xml (uses expat as flavor) www/rawdog not sure, but the same problem maybe for 2.3 python-mpz package. regards, joerg -- http://www.umaxx.net
