I almost worked, but I did hit an issue during the installworld phase. The problem was when the make in /usr/src/share/zoneinfo tried to run tzsetup that dialog failed to run with the error: /tmp/install.xtvA5ik4/libdialog.so.7: Undefined symbol "_nc_wacs" I simply deleted the line "tzsetup $${optC} -r; \" at line 76 of the Makefile and re-ran the installworld. Everything worked from that point. I then compared /etc/localtime with /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles and they were identical, so I already had a localtime file built with the new zic. After the installworld completed, I tried running tzsetup and dialog ran fine, so I have no idea why the failure during the instsallworld. I did a search and found a very similar report in questions@. The only difference I saw was that my error was not prefaced with "/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: " and, of course, the random string. http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2011-July/232421.html Any ideas what might be happening here? It is a bit disconcerting as userland is half current and half stable when it dies. It would be very awkward to have to back out and may people updating to 9.0 after release might not know how to work around it. -- R.
