When you said here that I'd have to rebuild some stuff, I didn't think you meant every single port in the system. I finally got the pkgdb -Ff to work, but I had to remove a couple of packages that kept kicking it out because two packages placed files in the same place. I don't recall the packages now, but it the pkgdb did finally work. Then I did the portupgrade -rf pkg-config\*. That was last night (Friday) @ ~10. It's probably taken longer than it should have because I went to bed at 12 and got up through the night to answer the prompts. However, here it is 8:34 on Saturday night (MST) and it's still building KDE. I think that there was some things that hadn't upgraded before even though I thought that they had. I have a very serious question now. How am I supposed to know to check that stuff you said to with pkg_info -px ^gtk- and look for CWD /usr/local instead of what I had for everything CWD /usr/X11? How did you know that? Would that all have been in that /usr/ports/UPDATING? Thanks for the help.

Would I want to do the same thing as was suggested above, but with those variables; e.g. make NO_GUI=no? It's for this reason that I asked about this here. Where would they be defined? All I did, if I recall, was install the vim port from using sysinstall when I originally installed FreeBSD. After that, I installed cvsup-without-gui, updated my ports tree and then used portupgrade to upgrade the vim port (after installing portupgrade of course). I didn't actually define NO_GUI or WITHOUT_X11 anywhere when I originally did the install, and when I had originally installed the vim port it did work with the GUI.

How to recompile the VIM port for GUI
Hi, As I'd mentioned before, I upgraded my vim installation using portupgrade. However, when the upgrade completed, I could no longer start vim in the GUI. I get an error saying that GUI stuff wasn't compiled. I asked here at that time and was told to check up with the port maintainer. I've done this, but to no avail. I've heard nary a peep from the maintainer. So, how do I modify the build environment properly to allow for the building of the GUI? There are several variables referenced in the Makefile in /usr/ports/editors/vim, but I'm not sure what to make of them. Can someone please educate me on how to make vim work with a GUI using the ports rather than downloading and installing from scratch? It's not that I'm scared to install in that manner, it's just that I'd rather make the port work.
