building gnome2 on freebsd6-stable

[Didier Wiroth]

thanks for replying.

No, I actually did not have gnome installed, as I'm running fluxbox but may be I had some sub-gnome ports installed that I didn't notice and that are responsible for the build failure. 

May be I should uninstall all *gnome* ports and restart.

Best regards,
Didier
