Hi, I just walked a system from 9.1-RELEASE to 9.3-RELEASE using 'freebsd-update -r 9.3-RELEASE upgrade' Having fetched, patched, gone to single user - installed, rebooted - and installed again - I'm greeted by: " Completing this upgrade requires removing old shared object file. Please rebuild all installed 3rd part software (e.g., programs installed from the ports tree) and then run '/usr/sbin/freebsd-update install' again to finish installing updates. " I thought that only had to happen if you moved between major versions (e.g. 9.x to 10.x?) I can't find any way of making freebsd-update tell me what files it wants to remove now either? If I ignore this (on the understanding I may be running binaries linked against 'older' libraries) is that OK? This machine has a lot of ports on it - going from 9.1 to 9.3 was done because I *thought* that wouldn't require a mass recompile :( -Karl
