installation of gnome2

[J. W. Ballantine]

I'm still trying to get gnome2 installed, and still failing, in part due to 
the failure to get XFree86-4.3 installed.  I took the radical step and
did a pkg_deinstall -ar to remove all ports.  I then reinstalled the ports
I use and then cd to /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-4, did a make deinstall clean
and a make install clean.  This build failed with fc-cache: 
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1": /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: 
/usr/X11R6/lib/libfontconfig.so.1: Undefined symbol "FT_Get_BDF_Property".

I then did a google search on the net for FT_Get_BDF_Property and found,
what appear to be two solutions, the first was a old versions of the
freetype libs were laying around in /usr/lib and/or /usr/local/lib and
the other from you on the build order.  So I checked for libfreetype*
in the two lib dirs and didn't find any.  I then pkg_deinstall'ed 
freetype2, fontconfig and Xft and tryed a reinstall in that order.
the problem was that fontconfig failed with the FT_Get_BDF_Property error.

Any thoughts on what I need to try/do to resolve this?

Thanks

Jim Ballantine
