Hello, I have several problems with ports and packages in new 3.0 relase. 1) Several packages for X, such as fvwm2, xanim, xautolock, xv, xli do not run on my system, because they require libkrb.so, and I don't have Kerberos installed. This problems is solved by using the corresponding versions of those programs from ports and compiling them. However, I am interesting in whether such a situation will ever change. 2) Several ports from FreeBSD/ports-3.0 don't compile: they make gives a message this ports is broken for ELF and exit. I have no solution to this problem. The examples of ports I can't compile are: 1) gcl-2.2.2 GNU Common Lisp 2) kdelibs-1.0 Support libraries for the KDE integrated X11 desktop Grigoriy Strokin surprised FreeBSD user. ---------------------------------------------- P.S. Now I now how to deal with those broken packages: just symlink any valid sharead lib to libkrb and libdes: cd /usr/lib; ln -s libipx.so.2 libkrb.so.3; ln -s libipx.so.2 libdes.so.3 === Grigoriy Strokin, Lomonosov University (MGU), Moscow === === contact info: http://isabase.philol.msu.ru/~grg/ === To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
