Uninstalling the old version and installing the new version is recommended. However, some programs that were bound against the old version may nor run correctly. These programs should then be rebuilt. On 22 Apr 2007, at 11:03, Bjorn Berg wrote:
I checked for dbus. It's invoked on my command line to start GNOME. So a ran a search and an install and got this trace:

If I uninstall the older version what flaky behaviour can I expect trying to install the new one?

So you're trying to install dbus-glib, and it can't find the dbus libraries. I imagine this would be fixed by installing the dbus port first. Please try that and let us know if that fixes it. Then we can add that as a dependency to the dbus-glib port so that this situation is handled automatically in the future.
Um... Sorry, I see that dbus-glib already declares dbus as a dependency.
So is dbus installed?
