Hi, I am doing a fresh install of FreeBSD 9.0-RC3 from FreeBSD-9.0-RELEASE-i386-memstick.img on an Acer Aspire One netbook. Last night I attempted to install xfce4 from /usr/ports/x11-wm and it stopped with error:
gtk-update-icon-cache-(version): Needs cairo build with X11 support (sorry, don't recall version off the top of my head) I remember that cairo was installed before getting to gtk-update-icon-cache. I checked /etc/make.conf and there is nothing X11 related, ie WITHOUT_X11 is NOT set. I went over to /usr/ports/graphics/cairo and did a make config, did not see anything about X11 as an option, did a make install clean and I saw libX11 in the output.. Think it's ok. Then I went back to /usr/ports/x11-wm/xfce4 and redid make install clean to build... it continued on without further issue (so far :) I found another post about gtk-update-icon-cache and cairo/X11 but it does not appear to be a related issue. At the moment the xfce4 build is working for me, so my issue is resolved.. But not sure why I received the error, might be something to check out? Is there a better place to report potential issues with RC versions? Excited about 9 on the netbook, I tried FreeBSD 7.0 when i first got the Acer but could not get wireless working at the time so i scrapped it.
