Hi Maho Nakata,

First of all, thanks for all your good work - I've been your faithful
"customer" for several years already and really appreciate your dedication.

I'll have to reissue the compilation in the data partition since I already
started using the necessary space. I'll let you know.


Serious problem may be that when some cws (child work space, smallest

>From my past experience, I tend to use the ports as released and do not
update the ports tree. The few times I did were tough experiences, usually
ending with a complete reinstall... :-S  So I'm an easy customer on the
ports. System upgrades usually end up in a backup and start from scratch
(which was a real exercise on a VIA motherboard). So I may be somewhat
atypical...

I'll let you know the results.


Cheers
