The problem is related to packages, and appears to manifest itself whenever I attempt to install a package that is dependant on something that I have yet to install. When this happens, pkg_add claims to not install the package; yet it still records an entry in /var/db/pkg/. What's this got to do with libraries ? The problem seems to occur when I install the packages in the proper order again, even after (manually) deleting the botched dependant package. After everything is installed OK, I get this error (from a dodgy tcl/tk installation) ld.so: wish: libtk.so.3.6: Undefined error: 0 This has happened to me on several occasions, and frankly, I'm baffled. Any ideas ? My apologies if this is an obvious thing or is in a man page somewhere... Neil
