<h3>1. Upgrading from GNOME 2.2 to &gnomever; is tricky</h3>
<p> evolution-1.4.4 has a problem with attachments under
GNOME &gnomever;. This will be fixed in Evo 1.4.5 due out shortly.
<p> You should follow the
<a href="http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq2.html#q5">
instructions</a> for updating to GNOME &gnomever;. This may
still produce errors, however. You may have to re-run
<tt>pkgdb -F</tt> after each step. If you continue to
encounter errors after following the upgrade instructions,
log the entire upgrade procedure (you can use the <tt>-l</tt>
option to <tt>portupgrade</tt> to accomplish this).
<b>Compress</b> and send the log to
