Re: How do I prevent a port from installing?

Even if I knew how to get details, I wouldn't be able to because the system is completely unresponsive.

I do not want java installing again on this system ever under any circumstances. With java, at least, I believe I have to download the files by hand if there is ever an update. But what if I identify other ports that are causing me problems? Also, in deinstalling jdk, I found that apache-ant relied upon it, but I couldn't see what depended on apache-ant.

Installing Security Advisories
Dear all, One probably very simple question: I was trying to install actual FreeBSD patches as mentioned in Security Advisories. I follow the instructions and always come to the same point: 1. I fetch the patch. 2. I execute $cd /usr/src 3. I execute $patch < /path/to/patch Then the patch programm ask me which file to apply the patch at. The Security Advisory tells nothing about this. So how can I find out, which file to tell 'patch' to patch? Any help is kindly appreciated.

CUPS not working on FreeBSD 6.2-BETA
Dear FreeBSD people, Despite having started various attempts, I cannot print within KDE 3.5.4 on FreeBSD 6.2-BETA. I always receive error message as follows: An error occurred while retrieving the printer list: Connection to CUPS server failed. Check that the CUPS server is correctly installed and running. Error: localhost: read failed (14). Printer files are installed. Can someone please help?
