I was running fine on 5.1 but based on the comment from the previous poster
I reinstalled the snapshot (5.2). I was then unable to install any packages
from snapshots because of library errors. For example:
# pkg_add mutt-1.5.21p0v0-sasl
Can't install libiconv-1.14 because of libraries
|library c.64.1 not found
| /usr/lib/libc.so.65.0 (system): bad major
Can't install qdbm-1.8.78: can't resolve libiconv-1.14
Can't install cyrus-sasl-2.1.25p3 because of libraries
Can't install gettext-0.18.1p1: can't resolve libiconv-1.14
Can't install lmutt-1.5.21p0v0-sasl: can't resolve
cyrus-sasl-2.1.25p3,libiconv-1.14,qdbm-1.8.78,gettext-0.18.1p1
I don't know whether I should reinstall 5.1 and use it until 5.2 comes out
or whether I should continue and try to track -current and see if the issues
are resolved, but I am not looking forward to compiling much source given
the lack of framebuffer acceleration! I used to track -stable on i386 but I
have been away from OpenBSD for a while so I am a little rusty on all
this.
Are you running -current or 5.1 and since you are using it for a server and
it is working fine for you, what would you recommend?
Thanks.
