Unknown symbol "__sF" which somehow came from this ancient library in /usr/lib: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 11 Mar 29 2002 libgcc.so -> libgcc.so.2 -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 21343 Apr 4 1999 libgcc.so.2 moving the libraries out of the way just gave an error about not finding libgcc.so.2. One of the affected programs was postfix. After nothing helped, i installed a complete fresh ports tree and recompiled postfix-current, but when make installing it, even there it complained about Unknown symbol "__sF" and i was not able to install it. Luckily i had saved the /usr/obj and /usr/src, downgrading to the old current stopped the nightmare and i'm writing this again from the September-based current. Is there help in sight or do i have to do a complete, fresh reinstall on this machine (Oh nooooo .... ;-) ) ? tired, hellmuth -- Hellmuth Michaelis Hamburg, Europe hm@kts.org www.kts.org There is a difference between an open mind and a hole in the head.
