Hi There,

I was ready through this "How do I upgrade to GNOME 2.22?" on
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq222.html
and noticed something was missing,
Comparing
      # pkg_deinstall -fO gnome-applets\* totem\* gnome-control-center\*
with
      # pkg_delete -f gnome-applets\* totem\* gnome-control-center\*
gnome-keyring-manager\*


I guess it should read : # pkg_deinstall -fO gnome-applets\* totem\*
gnome-control-center\* gnome-keyring-manager\*


This is missing " gnome-keyring-manager\* "

Thanks
Karl


How do I upgrade to GNOME 2.22?

The answer is relatively simple:

   1.

      To build GNOME 2.22, you need to obtain the latest ports tree
skeleton. This is most easily accomplished with portsnap(8) or CVSup.
Simply obtain the latest ports tree, and you are ready to go. Then do
the following:

      # pkgdb -Ff
      # portupgrade -f gstreamer-plugins-good
      # pkg_deinstall -fO gnome-applets\* totem\* gnome-control-center\*
      # portupgrade -aOW


      NOTE: it is recommended to run portupgrade -a to make sure you
get all the necessary ports.

      If you are a portmaster(8) user, make sure you have least 1.9
version. Then do the following:

      # portmaster -a
      # portmaster gstreamer-plugins-good
      # pkg_delete -f gnome-applets\* totem\* gnome-control-center\* \
            gnome-keyring-manager\*
      # portmaster -a
