I have added an extra step in the aout->elf upgrade which attempts to move aout libraries out of the elf library directories. This step is performed before the first install, so you still have the option of doing and aout-to-elf-build and not affecting your installed system. If you choose to do the aout-to-elf-install, the upgrade will move the aout libraries (including those in use!) provided that there are no conflicts that would cause one library to over-write another. If there is an out-of-date library relative to one already in the directory that the old one would be moved to, you will be asked for confirmation before it is deleted. If there is a newer library that would be moved over an older version, you will be asked for confirmation before the old one is replaced. For those people who have already upgraded to elf, you can move your libraries manually, or do a `make move-aout-libs' from the root of the source tree. You will need to edit ldconfig_paths in /etc/rc.conf and any other places where ldconfig paths are set. -- John Birrell - jb@cimlogic.com.au; jb@freebsd.org http://www.cimlogic.com.au/ CIMlogic Pty Ltd, GPO Box 117A, Melbourne Vic 3001, Australia +61 418 353 137 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
