The sourceforge page for this project says "GTKyahoo project was closed down on February 27, 2003." http://gtkyahoo.sourceforge.net/ You may have a much easier time installing something that is being currently maintained. I believe net-im/pidgin is quite popular and is actively maintained. Pidgin is a messenger client, and it can handle quite a few protocols, including yahoo.

print/acroread8
Hello, # uname -a FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE #0: Sun Sep 21 13:28:51 EST 2008 I just installed print/acroread8 from a ports tree that is about 1-2 days old (depending on your time zone). The plugin for firefox (mozilla) was installed to: /root/.mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so When I did: nsplugginwrapper -v -a -i it found the plugin, and: nsplugginwrapper -l lists it as installed, but firefox doesnt load it. So, I removed the plugin with: nspluginwrapper -r /root/.mozilla/plugins/npwrapper.nppdf.so then, moved the file nppdf.so into /usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins and then, reinstalled it from the new location with: nsplugginwrapper -v -a -i Now firefox loads the plugin and it all works as expected. I dont know if this is a packaging problem with acroread8, ie maybe it should drop the file nppdf.so into /usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins instead of /root/.mozilla/plugins - - - or maybe this is a problem with the wrapper not setting up the plugin properly. Anyway, this was the problem I encountered, and how to fix it manually in case anyone else is seeing this.

Its for a package server, ie slurp daily CVS updates and make new versions of packages available for clients to install.

make package-recursive question
Hello, If I do "make package-recursive" on a port then it first tries to install the port. This causes it to fail if the port is already installed. However, if I deinstall the port, and then make package-recursive, it installs the port, makes the port package, and (this is the important part) quite happily makes packages for all the ports dependencies even though those dependencies _are_ already installed. Is there any way to tell "make package-recursive" to not bother trying to install the top level port, ie just make the package like it does for all the dependencies? Cheers, Tim.

Fix it, send in a patch giving the reason that it used to break heir style/policy and now with the patch it doesnt. Then you will be in a better position to present your reasoning to a port manager if the maintainer complains. And, assuming the port manager will approve of a port being made heir compliant, you will then have a precedent to back you up, and may be more able to convince a port manager to give you approval/backing to do the whole lot.

On a recent upgrade after updating the ports tree, xorg got upgraded, and wrote over the top of the existing /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc file - not a big problem as I have a number of desktop boxes setup with same xinit file - so I just copied one across - but still annoying - especially if you only have one desktop - which means you will lose any customizations to xinit - would be nice if it first created a backup/saved copy of existing xinit before overwriting it.

Something is really not right with azureus 2.5 / diablo-jdk 1.5
Hello, I have azureus-2.5.0.0 which requires diablo-jdk-1.5.0.07.01_1 to build (among other things). It builds and runs fine, however, azureus limps along for about 10 minutes with very low download and upload speeds, then it seems to grind to a halt, the d/l and u/l basically stop. There are no errors to report because the application keeps going, but the problem is it stops actually d/l or u/l anything (sometimes you might get short bursts of extremely slow speeds, but it is mostly 0 B/s). I suspect that diablo-jdk that is at fault, but in truth this is just a hunch. uname -a FreeBSD earth.com 6.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE #0: Sun May 7 04:32:43 UTC 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 PS - this is not a complaint, or even an error report, it is more of a heads up with what I am having happen on my system - also, I installed azureus to a windoze box that is on the same LAN and it is behaving normally, so it doesnt look like firewall/nat issue.
