hi, first off i'm new to freebsd, been running it 3days now with gnome up and running nicely. I had just upgraded ports packages (whopping 8 hours ) but everything went smooth, except for "xchat 2.8.8".
I had originally installed xchat, which was "2.8.6" i believe... i was given a build error for xchat 2.8.8 after finished the ports upgrade. I get this:
Now xchat is my favourite irc client, as i'm familiar with it, i have tried xchat-gnome but is not to my liking. Is there any way i can install xchat 2.8.8 somehow or revert back to 2.8.6? The ports upgrade removed xchat completely, and the above output in my terminal obviously isn't doing much.
Thanks for any help.
btw: heres the version i'm running:
