Hello all,

at the risk of sounding incredibly lame, I am, as the subject says, having
trouble with shared libraries in FreeBSD 2.0.5. The problem is related to
packages, and appears to manifest itself whenever I attempt to install
a package that is dependant on something that I have yet to install. When
this happens, pkg_add claims to not install the package; yet it still
records an entry in /var/db/pkg/.

What's this got to do with libraries ? The problem seems to occur when
I install the packages in the proper order again, even after (manually)
deleting the botched dependant package. After everything is installed OK,
I get this error (from a dodgy tcl/tk installation)

	ld.so: wish: libtk.so.3.6: Undefined error: 0

This has happened to me on several occasions, and frankly, I'm baffled.
Any ideas ? My apologies if this is an obvious thing or is in a man page
somewhere...

Neil
