portupgrade -a and pkgdb -F failed

I just realized that my

kv_bsd#

ports system has 544 ports related to gnome.  I decided to willy nilly
see if I could install a bunch of stuff.  Maybe I am a loose cannon
(MAYBE???), but I went barrelling ahead.  make install clean, 
gnomelogalyzer.sh, portupgrade -a and pkgdb -F stuff below.

===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
Please run the gnomelogalyzer, available from
"http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/gnomelogalyzer.sh";, which will diagnose the
problem and suggest a solution. If - and only if - the gnomelogalyzer 
cannot
solve the problem, report the build failure to the FreeBSD GNOME team at
gnome FreeBSD org, and attach (a)
"/usr/ports/devel/glibmm/work/glibmm-2.16.0/config.log", (b) the output of
the failed make command, and (c) the gnomelogalyzer output. Also, it might
be a good idea to provide an overview of all packages installed on your 
system
(i.e. an `ls /var/db/pkg`). Put your attachment up on any website,
copy-and-paste into http://freebsd-gnome.pastebin.com, or use send-pr(1) 
with
the attachment. Try to avoid sending any attachments to the mailing list
(gnome FreeBSD org), because attachments sent to FreeBSD mailing lists are
usually discarded by the mailing list software.

Generating build log. Please wait... done.

The cause of your build failure is not known to gnomelogalyzer.sh.  Before
e-mailing the build log to the FreeBSD GNOME team at 
freebsd-gnome FreeBSD org,
TRY EACH OF THE FOLLOWING:

  * If you are generating your own logfile, make sure to generate it with
    something similar to:
          "make 2>&1 | tee /path/to/logfile" (sh/bash/ksh/zsh) or
          "make |& tee /path/to/logfile" (csh/tcsh)
        * Make sure your cvsup(1) configuration file specifies the 
'ports-all'
          collection
        * Run cvsup(1) and attempt the build again
        * Check /usr/ports/UPDATING for information pertinent to your 
build
          failure
        * 99% of the commonly reported build failures can be solved by
          running "portupgrade -a"
        * Read the FAQs at http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/
        * Search the archives of freebsd-gnome FreeBSD org   Archives can 
be
          searched at http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/index.html#search

If you have not performed each of the above suggestions, don't bother 
asking
for help.  The chances are good that you'll simply be told to perform one 
of
the aforementioned steps.
