Seems to me that FreeBSD is broken as far as everything which uses those libnames... it's not only fpc problem. Old binaries won't work on new freeBSD and vice versa. It's their idiocy not our, we didn't rename those libs 2x. You don't have a bugfix, you can't ifdef ports version. It doesn't depend on OS version of FreeBSD but on the fact that the person has new ports or not. If someone on 6.0 updates his ports he'll have the new "-" version of glib and others. Same for 5.4. > I don't understand, why not just fix the missing "-" in the IFDEF > FreeBSD statement, and produce a working FPC?
