Thanks for getting back to me. I updated the ports tree via portsnap and then tried installing freetype2. Same problem: right the various prebuild checks for things like gcc I get the following lines config.status: executing libtool commands /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.9: Undefined symbol "_ThreadRuneLocale" *** Error code 1 Now, like you said, seems anything installed from ports will not run on the command line. I just get the above error message instead. > Cheers, > > Matthew > > -- > Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. > PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey > > -- Michael Gass [email protected] _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
