I had 120 packages to update :e And yet I'm updating every week.

It is impossible to upgrade the following packages this week. And I think they have something in common (maybe gnome) but I do not know which.

Code: 
KpackageKit                         <
avidemux2                           <

20120531 libping.so (/png/) , see /usr/ports/UPDATING
Though at least one large port (too large to build here) I still use with the new libpng.so copied to /usr/local/lib/compat/libpng.so.6 (temporarily)
 
Updating is impossible because I can not install graphics/png properly. There is a problem with libpng15d.so.15.10 and libpng15.so.15.10 and also
Code: 
/usr/ports/graphics/libungif no target to make
 
If there's this much to update it's usually easier to just pkg_delete -a and start over.

Update the /usr/ports/MOVED /usr/ports/graphics (file, subdirectory) and it may be fixed. (You've deinstalled /usr/ports/graphics/libungif if it was installed ? )
 
I did a restore from the last backup. The upgrade works with 8.2. I modified /usr/local/lib/libpng15d.a and libpng15d.so.15 by libpng15.a and libpng15.so.15. But it does not work with 9.0. I expect the next update.

Both 8.2 and 9.0 use the same ports tree.
 
It seems that problems have been ironed out. I ran [CMD=""]portupgrade -fr png[/CMD] yesterday which compiled about 250 ports and had very little problems on my 9-STABLE box except tomboy stopped working.

I also can't compile ImageMagick and libreoffice but I don't think that this is a related issue.
