Here is my tale of woe.

Freebsd 4.11-stable.  I upgraded my ports using portupgrade -arR after 
cvsuping and make fetchindex and portsdb -u.  Things worked, so I went out 
and did portupgrade.

But my gnome-2.8.2 install is hosed.  It starts but gives me no taskbars or 
button bars.  Just little iconlets--one on the top, the "quicklaunch 
toolbar" for a few apps I had in it, and a little something at the bottom 
which I cannot figure out what it is supposed to be.

I tried doing a  make deinstall of gnome and cleared everything out of 
ports/distfiles.  But it didnt require anything new I imagine all it needed 
is still laying around here, broken.

SO, my friends, I would like to get my gnome install back....
