freebsd stable - Aug 2003 - XFree86-4-clients: lXfonts not found

hi sirs,

i have some problem during upgrade XFree86-clients as
shown in an attachment.  if i did

[firak] ~> find /usr/X11R6/lib -name "*Xfont*" -print
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXfontcache.a
[firak] ~>

so that lXfontcache is there but not lXfont indeed. 
at this point i don't know how to solve the problem.

am using freebsd as my only os and applications, so
any helps and hints are welcome and appreciate.

please cc to me since i do not a member of the list.

That is a pity because the fix has been discussed many time. A typical 
response in a case like this is tell you to search the archives and not 
waste more bandwidth with the problem.

You are upgrading from a version where the fonts were part of -server. 
They were moved to -libraries and when you updated server, they were 
deleted. The only fix is to reinstall -libraries.
