Program version and major OS release don't match. This is a reason to install the compat- ports. For example, if you are on 7.2 and update to 8.0, your system will run, but most of your applications wouldn't. Installing misc/compat7x from ports (or via "pkg_add -r compat7x" as a package) will provide the libraries for compatibility to 7 on a 8 system. It's a good solution if you don't want to recompile / reinstall, but personally, I consider it a short-time solution. Of course, there can be settings where this is your only solution, e. g. if you have a binary that's compiled for 7, and you can not compile it for 8 (because there is no source code). -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
