Hello world, As you may know, it appears that the libc and libc_r shlib versions are going to be bumped on 4-stable soon. This means, unfortunately, that the entire package set has to be rebuilt before the release. We haven't finalized the final package build schedule yet, but please be advised that there will be another short ports freeze happening sometime later this week, and everything that is in the tree at that time will be re-tagged for 4.2. Fortunately, that also means that all the stuff we've fixed in the past week (as well as what we can fix from now until the freeze) will be in 4.2. (Hello, pine-4.30? :) Meanwhile, I've restarted another 4-stable only build loop on bento. You can find the latest logs at places like http://bento.FreeBSD.org/errorlogs/errorlogs/e.4.2000111217/ so please check back to see if you can fix even more stuff. I'll let you know when the exact freeze date is determined. Thanks for your help and sorry for the inconvenience, but it is not really anyone's fault and stuff like this is just inevitable once in a while. -PW P.S. The open-motif change has been in there for a few days already so I don't plan to back it out. Please speak out if you don't agree with my decision. P.P.S. It is probably my fault for not recognizing earlier what exactly the "40upgrade considered harmful" thread meant, double sorry....
