I've been upgrading one of my machines recently, and I finally got round to installing tcp_wrappers 7.5. I hacked the port makefile and patch to use 7.5 instead of 7.4 (which may mhave security problems) and it all installed fine, including the added dynamic library in /usr/local/lib. Then I recompiled the portmapper to use libwrap. I rebooted the machine to test everything ... portmap failed because it couldnt find the dynamic libwrap - this is before ldconfig is run. I've fudged it in the short term by adding 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib portmap' rather than just 'portmap', but I was wondering on thoughts to fix this combination properly ... portmap could be compiled staticly - this is a waste of memory. libwrap could be put in /usr/lib - not the right place for it. Any other suggestions ? Peter.
