These should go to gnome at .

The problem is almost certainly some referenced lib is still linked to
an old lib in X11R6/ (Gnome 2.26 moved from /usr/X111R6 to /usr/local.)

If you look at the config.log from the apps, you may well find it, but
first run pgkdb -Ff again and look for multiply installed ports. (These
should not happen, but they do.)

If you find any, DON'T as pkgdb to unregister any of them. Instead, use
pkg_delete to delete all older versions and then re-build and install
the current versions. You will likely find things like gnomehier and
libxklavier in this state. I have found as many as half a dozen.

Good luck,
