In that case your best bet is to make distclean and try again. The tarballs will be re-fetched and the port will build fine. Just had a good look into this. A you rightly said it seems that they are updating the Skins but they are _not_ changing the version numbers. So if you have them previously installed, when you go to upgrade the skins, portupgrade checks to see if they are in distfiles (which they are as the version never changed remember) and then if it finds them it checks the md5 sums in distinfo (which do not match as they match the new version with the same version number). So the only way to fix this is to run make distclean on the mplayer-skins port. Just had a look at the portupgrade man page. Looks like if you use the -D flag it will check the md5sums and if they fail it will run distclean. If you specify it twice it will distclean anything it tries to update.

Which app to watch movies?
I'm trying to watch some movies from archive.org, but I'm not familiar with the correct process. I installed xine and avifiles, but they can't play the free mpeg4 movies I'm downloading from archive.org. Am I supposed to install the codecs separately? Or should I be using a different video player? I'm not clear on what the relationship is between the various players and codec packages in /usr/ports is. Other than xine, I'm not sure which other ones are most commonly used. I'm trying to watch some of these movies: http://www.archive.org/movies/movies-details-db.php?collection=prelingercollectionid=17225from=mostViewed Any movie watching tips would also be appreciated. Oh, I did get Realplayer8 to work inside WINE, which was pretty cool. thx! ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
