Jose,

Thanks for your suggestions pkgdb -F didn't fix anything. Granted I only 
selected the default actions but running a subsequent portupgrade still 
resulted in the same compilation errors.

The situation is as follows......... help from the group would be 
greatly received. My knowledge is limited but we all have to start 
somewhere right.

Anyway xorg ports list looks like this.

pkg_info | grep -i xorg
linux-xorg-libs-6.8.2_5 Xorg libraries, linux binaries
xorg-clients-6.9.0_3 X client programs and related files from X.Org
xorg-docs-1.4,1 X.org documentation files

pkg_info | grep -i x11

The pkgdb -F outputs the following and doesn't resolve the following: -

Would fixing any of the Unregisters above fix my problem of xorg 7 
compenet compilations failing to find dependances 'fontconfig' or 
'xproto' which by looking at my ports list above should be registered as 
installed.

I've had no experience of pkgdb or portupgrade before following the 
install instructions for xorg in /usr/ports/UPDATING so please excuse 
any ignorance that may be evident here.

A way forward would be appreciated. I was considering doing a make 
uninstall for each xorg component and running the make install for the 
latest version of xorg from the ports tree but I'm worried about loosing 
the ability to run my xserver. Even in this mixed up state I can still 
start an x session.

Ta all for any input.

Jon :o)
