Just installed FreeBSD 7.0, am trying to get gnome 2.26 up. Did the pkg_add -r gnome... but on starting gnome-session (to test) it reports
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object libpolkit-dbus.so.2 not found, required by gnome-session
#pkg_info -Ix policykit
policykit-0.1.200060514_4 Framework for controlling access to system-wide components
policykit-gnome-0.9.2.1 GNOME frontend to the PolicyKit framework
I could get xfce up.
How to resolve this ?

#pkg_info -Ix policykit
policykit-0.1.200060514_4 Framework for controlling access to system-wide components
policykit-gnome-0.9.2.1 GNOME frontend to the PolicyKit framework
This doesn't look right...
#pkg_info -Ix policykit
policykit-0.9_4 Framework for controlling access to system-wide components
policykit-gnome-0.9.2_1 GNOME frontend to the PolicKit framework

Hmm...I did a pkg_delete and then pkg_add -r policykit-0.9.4.tbz
Now pkg_info -Ix policykit says
policykit-0.9_4 Framework for controlling access to system-wide components
policykit-gnome-0.9.2_1 GNOME frontend to the PolicKit framework
Now running 'gnome-session' reports libgio-2.0.so.0 not found. Think the gnome install that I did was half-baked, how can I uninstall and install clean ?

pkg_delete -a will remove all installed packages.
setenv PACKAGESITE ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-stable/Latest/
Adjust for amd64 if needed.
Why did you install 7.0? Why not 7.2?

Thanks, although I could not get things working with 7.0, just downloaded the .iso for 7.2-Release and did pkg_add for gnome2. Now things are looking good. Appreciate your time.
