Thanks Beech 

I do not understand how to reach such a conclusion but yr
help is most appreciated. I tried something which seemed to
satisgy pkgdb but will no doubt have negative repercussions
later -- I chose krb5-1.5.1_1 as the new dependency -- and
had a a report Fixws!  No doubt it was the wrongchoice but I
now have portupgrade working.. unless I hear anything from
you to the contrary when this run  is done I will follow
your instructions and trust it all works out in the end..

<chuckles>
ps where in alaska are you? I spend quite a few years in the
South East

^d deletes the dependency entirely and rebuilding the port
in question will 
(hopefully) re establish the proper one. I've used this when
it was not 
desirable to pkg_delete and rebuild the port. You might also
take a look at 
the "-O" option. See man(1) portupgrade.

I'm in Anchorage.
