However the graphics/gd1 port provides libgd1.so.2 -- which is not
what ld-elf.so.1 is asking for.  Hmmm... Looks like the dependency was
changed from gd to gd1 with version 1.33 of the port Makefile about 2
weeks ago.  The OP should update their ports tree and then re-install
ntop, which should get gd1 installed as a dependency rather than gd.

However 'portupgrade -fr' of the port providing the missing shlib is
the generic solution to this sort of problem.

	Cheers,
