Yes. You've upgraded the gettext port which has bumped the version
number on the libintl.so shared library. If you're up-to-date with
your gettext-0.11.4 port, then you should have:
happy-idiot-talk:~:% ls -l /usr/local/lib/libintl*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 47292 Aug 7 21:32 /usr/local/lib/libintl.a
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 12 Aug 7 21:32 /usr/local/lib/libintl.so@ -> libintl.so.4
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 36126 Aug 7 21:32 /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.4
Unfortunately a large number of other ports depend on gettext --- you
can see the dependencies by running:
pkg_info -R gettext-\*
On my system that returns a list of 43 packages, including such things
as lynx, gtar, windowmaker, mozilla and anything to do with GNOME.
Any of those might fail to work.
The cure is to recompile those ports so that they get relinked against
the latest libintl.so.4 --- a handy way of doing that is:
portupgrade -rNif -x gettext-0.11.4 gettext-0.11.4
Cheers,
Matthew
