2007-06-13 Thread dhaneshk k 


Hi everybody ,

This is Dhanesh ,I m  a newbe to FreeBsd , I had a  intel p4 box with 
FreeBSD-6.1  Os with Gnome 2.18.  installed  and ,  this desktop working 
fine for last 2 months . Mean while  I tried to installOpenOffice  from 
ports collection for this box , but it  is asking for an upgrade of Xorg 
libraries , so I followed the   /usr/ports/UPDATING procedureline by  
line  ,,   every thing went fine   at the stage   where I reached


# portupgrade  -aP   ( while runnig this command   about an  hour or 
more  ) ther  HAPPENED a power
failure  ,  after thisthe   m/c restarted  andthe Desktop 
environment lost for ever , Its asking for command login without   Desktop 
GUI login ,  ther is an error message  its showing  gdm_server_spawn : 
Xserver not found  : /usr/X11R6/bin/X  : 0 -audit  /var/gdm/: 0.Xauth 
-nolisten tcp vt9
Failed to start X server several times in a short time period , disabling 
display:0



 I tried to continue the   portupgrade -aP command again  but its showing 
errors ,
Stale dependency  : at-spi-1.18.1_1  xmlcatmgr-2.2  --  manually run 
'pkgdb -F' to fix , or specify -0 to force


asking  pkgdb  -F  to  run

# pkgdb -F  I executed but  its showing some


Duplicated origin : multimedia/gstreamer  -gstreamer-0.10.12 
gstreamer80-0.8.12_2

Unregister any of them ?[no]

I enter no for  3/4  times for some duplicate origins


Then it asking  for Stale dependency at-spi-1.18.1_1 --xmlcatmgr-2.2 
(textproc/xmlcatmgr) :




Install stale dependency ?[yes]  y
but its failed showing thatstop in /usr/ports/textproc/xmlcatmgr
(I tried to to deinstall and make reinstall   textproc/xmlcatmgr many 
times it also failed all the times )


Here I requesting  anyone  of you to help me to

 1provide the method  to retrive the Desktop   environment ?  OR

 2  Other wise how I can remove all the the things related to xserver  (so 
that  I have to install the Gnome 2.18 again   as I did   was  portinstall  
/usr/ports/x11/gnome2  )


thanks in advance

Dhanesh

I got stuck with gstreamer during my xorg upgrade, too, and I decided
to remove everything related to gstreamer, including the applications
that depend on it (vlc, mplayer...).
Makes it easier, IMO.

To figure out what happens to your xmlcatmgr port you should provide
the exact output, that means the error messages.
