Think COMPAT libs... since we provide them, we need them to work properly. I have /usr/lib/libfoo.so.2 and /usr/lib/compat/libfoo.so.1. Now old and new binaries are happy. With a version major number bump, and binary run on old system, you get a very clear error message: you don't have to right library. The fix is deterministic. Now a new binary, using new features, and no major version bump: symbols unresolvable. Now how do you determine what is the right library to get? -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.com -or- obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
