You're new to -current, then... If you can't deal with this yourself in some way or other, you need to wait for new snapshot packages to be built. Packages don't appear instantly, there is always a time after any library bump in base or X where the snapshot packages need an older libSomething.so file. If you aren't tracking -current frequently enough to have the old file in the correct arch on some system or other, you get to either build from ports, or wait for new snaps. > I can send the exact errors.
