Hi Lowell, thanks for your comments...I'm not trying to install via a
package. I'm going into /usr/ports/x11-wm/xfce4 (or gtk20) and typing
make install clean. Afaik this is how to install a port, unless I'm
missing something really obvious. This is when the error occurs. I
haven't tried installing using packages (pkg_add?).

Okay, that's completely correct.

When the make install runs, it recognizes atk 1.6.1 and has no problem
with it, but then bails out later saying it can't find 1.0.91.

I think we'll need to see the exact error messages.

Yes, I ran cvsup on all ports, and the system, from cvsup.freebsd.org
(I think that's the correct address). Had no problems doing this.

Okay, so you should be up to date.

I'll check uname -r when I get home and see if there appears to be a
problem there.

Unfortunately, that should be fine.  You had me confused by talking
about packages.

Re: Dependency problem: atk-1.0.901

   Hi Lowell
   Thanks for the help so far. At the moment I'm actually cvsuping to
   RELENG_4 to see if I can install the port after a buildworld. It's not
   that I'm giving up on RELENG_5 so much as I'm just interested to see
   if this solves the problem, or if I still run into a dependency issue.
   Also, I'm a sucker for punishment.
   I'll let you know how I get on.
   Regards
   Bnonn

 Hi everyone, when attempting to install GTK2 or XFCE, I get a stop error
 stating that the package atk-1.0.901 does not exist. I've
 checked /usr/ports/accessibility/atk and have found that atk1.6.1
 exists, and can be installed without problems, however apparently this
 is not the right version.

You could just install gtk2 from the ports instead of from a package,
and then it will use whatever atk you have installed.  If you install
from a package, then obviously you need the same version installed
that the package was linked against.

 I'm running FreeBSD 5.4 and have tried updating via cvs etc, without any

Do you mean you updated via cvsup?  Or if you actually mean cvs, then
where was the cvs repository, and how do you know it was up-to-date?
Which collections do you update?

 luck. It seems strange to me that this dependency problem would exist,
 as surely a lot of people install GTK2, if not XFCE. Does anyone know of
 a way to get around this? I'd sort of like to have a gui for my
 machine :)

Note that 5.4 hasn't been released yet, so if you are trying to match
the packages against the system, you need to make sure that the
packages area still matches your system's release level (uname -r), as
it has gone from 5.4-PRERELEASE to 5.4-BETA1, so the 5.4-PRERELEASE
directory path no longer exists on the FTP servers.
