I have been struggling to install a number of programs for several days and I keep getting stonewalled by png. Although I like and use png images, I have no need for the animated png or for png in this installation of FreeBSD 9.0. It has blocked a number of programs that I cannot begin to list. Among them, png itself, gtk20 which is a dependency for fluxbox-configure, firefox 10 and now wm jwm.
Because of this, I can't bring up Xorg properly. Fluxbox installs, but generates a ton of errors. Fluxbox-configure is blocked by png and when I uninstall fluxbox and try to install jwm I get the above error.
I have found nothing on google or the forums.
Any hehlp would be appreciated.
