As many of you noticed, the update of devel/pcre bumped hte version of libpcre.so which is a dependency of LOTS of things. Here are some incomplete notes on what might bite you: Note that I refer to pkg_libchk. It is part of sysutils/bsddminscripts. If you run pkgng, you will need to edit it an change "pkg_info" to "pkg info". There may be a couple of other changes needed, but I have not switched to pkgng due to tools that use the old /var/db/pkg structure. 1. portmaster/portupgrade -r devel/pcre will want to re-install most everything on the system. Use pkg_libcheck: % pkg_libchk -o | grep libpcre | cut -f1 -d: | sort | uniq > rebuild.pcre 2. pkg_delete -f avahi-app 3. portmaster -D `cat rebuild.pcre` This will result in re-building only those ports that really need re-building. If avahi-app is not deleted, it will fail to re-build. If you hit that, just delete the package and re-start the rebuild job. If I find other issues, I will follow up on this thread. Since my system is a laptop running Gnome, others may hit issues I won't. This would be better done on the wiki, but I don't have write access to it. -- R.
