Try running the mergebase.sh script at /usr/ports/Tools/scripts/mergebase.sh. My guess is that in the past you began the upgrade path from 6.9 to 7.x but didn't quite finish the procedure (note that is very much a guess). You should probably read through the script before you run it, just in case your system isn't set up as it expects. So I guess I'm gonna do a clean install of all of Xbut can you tell me which packages I should remove exactly? Depends very much on what you have installed - pkg_info(1)'s -r and -R options will help you to build up an overview of what you need to remove/update, if mergebase doesn't work. It's a good idea to save a list of currently-installed ports to refer to in the event this all goes *pop*. Good luck!

error while updating ports: x11/xorg-libraries
Hi, After a quite some time of not using the machine, I decided to update a PentiumIII pc running FreeBSD 6.2. Starting with portupgrade -R firefox it ends with: [Updating the pkgdb format:bdb_btree in /var/db/pkg ... - 685 packages found (-0 +1) . done] --- Skipping 'graphics/cairo' (cairo-1.4.10) because a requisite package 'xorg-libraries-7.2_1' (x11/xorg-libraries) failed (specify -k to force) --- Skipping 'x11-toolkits/pango' (pango-1.16.5) because a requisite package 'cairo-1.4.10' (graphics/cairo) failed (specify -k to force) --- Skipping 'x11-toolkits/gtk20' (gtk-2.10.14) because a requisite package 'pango-1.16.5' (x11-toolkits/pango) failed (specify -k to force) --- Skipping 'www/firefox' (firefox-2.0.0.6,1) because a requisite package 'pango-1.16.5' (x11-toolkits/pango) failed (specify -k to force) ** Listing the failed packages (*:skipped / !:failed) ! x11/xorg-libraries (xorg-libraries-7.2_1) (unknown build error) * graphics/cairo (cairo-1.4.10) * x11-toolkits/pango (pango-1.16.5) * x11-toolkits/gtk20 (gtk-2.10.14) * www/firefox (firefox-2.0.0.6,1) --- Packages processed: 34 done, 61 ignored, 4 skipped and 1 failed So, starting to look for information about xorg-libraries, I've searched in /usr/ports/CHANGES, MOVED and UPDATING but found nothing.

If it still fails, show us the errors from the xorg-libraries build.
