Hi Dan, Thank you very much for your help. I did "make configure" in ports/devel/gettext.... it downloaded the .tar.gz file from ftp://gnudist.gnu.org, then I did "make install" and everything is cooking 100% now... fetchmail is already fetching mail like magic. Just one more question, as I am still learning about all this make this, make that and it is still all too cryptic for me... why didn't "pkg_add gettext-0.11.5_1.tbz" do the job? What is the difference between what you told me to do and what I was doing? Thanx for your help yet again DJ Boris ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dan Nelson" <dnelson@allantgroup.com> To: "DJ Boris" <dj_boris@mail.ru> Cc: "freebsd-questions" <freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG> Sent: Friday, April 25, 2003 12:12 AM Subject: Re: error "Undefined symbol" while running fetchmail > In the last episode (Apr 25), DJ Boris said: > > hm reinstalling gettext-0.11.5_1 didn't help > > > > here is what mine returns..... > > # nm /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.4 | grep stpcpy > > U stpcpy > > > > this version of gettext requires libiconv-1.8_2 and I have > > libiconv-1.8_1 because fetchmail-6.1.0 requires it. so then I install > > libiconv-1.8_2 to stop gettext from complaining but then fetchmail > > gives me a warning that it needs libiconv-1.8_1 and not > > libiconv-1.8_2 > > > > it seems like this is a vicious circle.... > > > > any other idea what could be the problem? > > Is your ports tree up to date?
