>Description:
Portupgrading to gnome2-2.2.2_1 from gnome2-2.2.2 on a system that *never* had Gnome-1 installed failed today with the following error:

===>  Extracting for gnome2-2.2.2_1
>> No MD5 checksum file.
===>  Patching for gnome2-2.2.2_1
===>   gnome2-2.2.2_1 depends on file: /usr/local/bin/python2.2 - found
===>  Configuring for gnome2-2.2.2_1
gnomeaudio was detected on the system.  This package is part of the GNOME 1.x
desktop, and cannot coexist with the GNOME 2.2 desktop.
 
Please deinstall the GNOME 1.x desktop before installing this package.
*** Error code 1
 
Stop in /usr/ports/x11/gnome2.
** Command failed [exit code 1]: /usr/bin/script -qa /tmp/portupgrade77370.0 make** Fix the problem and try again.
** The following packages were not installed or upgraded (*:skipped / !:failed)
        ! x11/gnome2 (gnome2-2.2.2)     (unknown build error)
#

The thing is, this system was built with Gnome-2.x from its initial FreeBSD installation, so I do not understand why there is now an issue with Gnome-1.4 compatibility.

>How-To-Repeat:
Cvsup ports tree
Run "portupgrade -R gnome2-2.2.2gnome2-2.2.2"
Watch error

>Fix:
Dunno
