I was running Gnome 2.4 which was working normally
before. I mis-applied "make deinstall' to remove
'automake-1.5,1'. After starting I saw it started to
remove files which were needed I closed the Konsole
Window. Since then I have not run Gnome and don't know
wheher it is still working.

About yesterday I ran
# pkg_delete -r automake-1.5,1

then
# cd /usr/ports/devel/automake17
# make install clean
to install automake-1.7.5_1

Then I started Gnome and found it could not work.

I hesitate to run portsupgrade to upgrade Gnome to 2.6
because I am running a slow PC. Any other solution.

TIA

B.R.
Stephen
