Hi All,

        To add to the on-going discussion. I just did:
                sudo port -f upgrade gnome-user-docs

        I get the following output
                Warning: Uninstall forced.  Proceeding despite dependencies.

Error:
                    You have an Apple X11 installation already.
                        MacPorts will not overwrite it.

                    If you really want to use XFree86 instead,
                        please move it aside first :

                            sudo mv /usr/X11R6 /usr/X11R6.apple

Well if it sees I have X11 and I definately do not want to install why does it do it anyway ? I guess I going to write my own perl script for upgrading, because it is ridiculous that port
        wants to install things I do not want need screwing up my set up.
        
Accidently hit Ctrl-C instead of Command- C for the copy. Oh, well back to the drawing board.

Interestingly, when I did sudo port -d upgrade gnome-user-docs Xfree was not installed.

        regards
                Keith.
