After hours of head-banging over the past couple of days,
I have finally succeeded in installing EITHER
xorg-clients-6.8.2_1 OR xterm-206_1. Previously,
installing either port told me that it conflicted
with the other, in spite of having cvsupped my
ports tree twice to ensure I was getting the most
recent version of the ports, hopefully including a
fix to the chicken-and-egg problem noted in
/usr/ports/UPDATING
Once I spotted an odd bit of output in the portupgrade
dialogue, I made a change to xorg-clients Makefile
which allowed everything to install. pkgdb -F afterwards
and all my dependencies are tidied up.
May I suggest the following patch to
/usr/ports/x11/xorg-clients/Makefile:
--- Makefile Sun Nov 13 21:47:34 2005
+++ foo Tue Nov 15 19:19:37 2005
