firstly, thanks you very much. i just found a another way in gnome2-faq-freebsd. by using"# pkgdb -F # pkg_delete -rf pkgconfig\* # cd /usr/ports/x11/gnome2-lite # make clean # make install clean " then it delete all the deps and also the xorgs(oh...). i shouldn't do that until i see your reply :D anyhow, now is compiling the stuff again.hope everything works well.
