But on my system, there is only libcam.so.6. And appaently there is no dependency at all in the port to indicate that a specific version of that library would be required. >> How-To-Repeat: > 1. pkg_add smartmontools > 2. smartctl --help >> Fix: > Install from source using port. > This is due to a shared library bump that happened shortly after 9.0-BETA2, after the package was created. As you mention, it is not a problem when building from source, as smartctl links to libcam.so.6 (which replaces libcam.so.5 in -BETA3 and later). This should be a non-issue once the packages for 9.0-RELEASE are built and the correct $PACKAGESITE for pkg_add(1) exists. Regards, -- Glen Barber
