Re: pkg_cutleaves - a bit too efficient
Hi Portupgrade doesn't bring anything back though. what options are you passing to portupgrade? If you run portupgrade with certain flags, it will recursively go through all the dependencies for that package and install them if it finds them missing or if they are outdated. portupgrade -ri package_name or portupgrade -Rpv package_name will ensure that all the dependencies are sorted out. man portupgrade. -- Mike Of course, you might discount this possibility, but remember that one in a million chances happen 99% of the time. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Install portmanager from ports and run portmanager -s somefile to see what is missing, portmanager -u to repair it. There are some other switches in the man page. Of course if you removed something that nothing else depends on then even portmanager won't repair it :) Chris br - Nikolaj ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Once they are removed, they are gone for good. If you removed parts of GNOME, try reinstalling the x11/gnome2 port.
