Hello all,

Back in time I switched from -release to -current, but I'm installing
from snapshots. I saw the announce about uvideo stuff and I am very
interested about this that's why I installed the most recent snapshot
for testing. The date of the snapshot is 19-June, I also proceeded to
install some packages to test the video camera. One package people
speak about is ekiga. And here is the surprise:  a lot of unexpected
errors on install using pkg_add: "Can't install <package...>: Can't
resolve <lib...>.
Of course ekiga is highly dependent of gnome stuff, so you get a lot
of install. First errors are encountered on cairo and pongo stuff,
related to gnome.

I tried to install gnome-session all together, but the errors are present.

Don't bother to tell about relation from kernel and glibc , I waited
for the packages to be close to the kernel compilation date. IT should
work. I don't complain, but what I can do. I am not sure about a
diagnose, I think The packages are broken. But I'm not an expert and I
don't want to make stupid appreciation on others people great work.

I can send the exact errors. It will be copy by hand, since my OBSD
computer is almost not installed, without X. Please send and idea, am
I doing something wrong ?
The other way will be to use anonymous cvs and compile everything from
scratch, but I'm not sure about this. Is the snapshot a reliable stuff
or not ?

Thanks
