unfortunately, 'pkgdb -F' does not suggest the redirections. perhaps, as
you seem to suspect ;-), i messed up (or plain forgot) the deletion of
the imake ports. now that i am in the state i am in, would you consider
it safe to run 'pkgdb -F' (or -s) and provide the xorg equivalents as
replacements for the XFree86 ports?
