Bug in port: firefox-1.0_3,1 (?)

Hi,

1) Yes, this from 5-STABLE and I'm running 5.3-RELEASE.  Still, 

2) The port is looking for atk-1.6.1 though it ADVERTISES
   that it requires atk-1.8.0

3) The port seems to think atk-1.8.0 is OLDER than atk-1.6.1

4) This port was ACTUALLY HAPPY on other installs of 5.3-RELEASE.

   What is different about this one is that I installed WITHOUT
   Xorg or Gnome, then installed Gnome2-2.8.1 from packages.

Other than that, I love it.
Thanks for all your good work !

HTH,

Mike




           [Background: 
             On an earlier install of 5.3-RELEASE I had tried 
             following the instructions using gnome_upgrade.sh.

             That failed so I tried the fallback instructions:
               # pkgdb -F
               # pkg_delete -rf pkgconfig\*
               # cd /usr/ports/x11/gnome2
               # make clean
               # make install clean

             That also failed and it just got worse from there...
            ]

          by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
          If you really wish to overwrite the old port of accessibility/atk
          without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
          in your environment or the "make install" command line.
