Hi, I recently upgraded my system from FreeBSD 6.0 to 6.3. But Im having
trouble with some ports that are unable to find
/usr/X11R6/lib/libfontconfig.la. Where does this come from, so i can
(re)install it? I couldnt find this by Googling

I did try to force reinstall xorg, but that didnt work.

Did you upgrade xorg following the instructions? E.g.:
$ less -gi -p20070519 /usr/ports/UPDATING

FYI:
$ grep libfontconfig.la /usr/ports/x11-fonts/*/pkg-plist
/usr/ports/x11-fonts/fontconfig/pkg-plist:lib/libfontconfig.la

But I suggest you check if your Xorg upgrade is done properly first, 6.0 used
6.9 xorg.

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
and never get to the software part.
