| | Okay, then do portupgrade -rfu glib-2\*

| Done. After almost close to 48 hs the upgrade finished. All
| of the ports that were upgraded configured and built fine.
|
| Now evolution continues to refuse to startup. Again I used
| truss(1) to see what was happening and the output is here:
| http://genoma.unsam.edu.ar/~fernan/freebsd/evolution/evolution.truss
|
| I must confess that I don't know how to read this output,
| I'm just guessing ...but at least to my unexperienced eye the
| output doesn't look too much different to what I got before:
| http://genoma.unsam.edu.ar/~fernan/freebsd/evolution/old/evolution.1.truss
|
| Since I'm still intrigued by this (I want to test
| evolution's PIM features and see if I can drop korganizer!)
| I collected some information about my system that might be
| useful to debug this. Any help is appreciated.
|
| FreeBSD-4.10p4 cvsup is from 48 hours ago.
|
| All the files listed below are available from
| http://genoma.unsam.edu.ar/~fernan/freebsd/evolution/
|
| output collected while building evolution as part of the
| glib-2\* upgrade => evolution.out.gz
| output of 'ls -lR /usr/X11R6/lib/evolution' => evolution.libs.lslR
| output of 'ldconfig -r' => ldconfig.out
| output of 'ls /var/db/pkg' => pkg-18Nov2004.out
| and my /etc/libmap.conf
|
| Thanks in advance for any tip or suggestion. I'm beginning
| to think that it's not just a matter of doing a portupgrade
| -fa ... seems like something else needs to be fixed before
| ... but I don't know what.

I don't see the problem, but if you give me remote access, I should be
able to find it.

Joe

| Oh, and BTW, dasher now works fine.
