I am performing a fresh install of Gnome 2.16.1_3 on FreeBSD 6.1-R-p10.
It builds until it reaches totem, where it depends on iso-codes-0.53.  I
then receive the error message:

./iso3166tab.py iso_3166.xml > iso_3166.tab.new
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./iso3166tab.py", line 11, in ?

The file _socket.so does exist in the expected location.

I removed /usr/ports/misc/iso-codes, its distfile, ran cvsup again using
cvsup.FreeBSD.org instead of my "usual" one, and tried to rebuild
gnome2.  I got the same error message.

I would appreciate any suggestions to work around this.
