Did you copy the new system libraries to /usr/lib? As far as i remember, when pkg_add -n notices that some system library dependency is unsatisfied, it won't even download all of the offending package, so it can't be cached. For example, as long as you don't have libc.so.50.1, pkg_add -n won't download -current nspr-4.7.3 to your $PKG_CACHE. By the way, that system library stunt looks scary to me, too, and i certainly wouldn't recommend it. Does the pkg_info -S trick work for you? > desktop-file-utils didn't want to install at all, looks like something's > broken in the snapshot... Uh, breakage on the servers is rare, usually it's just us users screwing up one way or the other. > I'll give it another try tomorrow. > However, during pkg_add -nv dbus- I felt like seeing some > useradd/groupadd commands fly by, I'll drop an extra eye on that. You mean things like rmuser: _postgresql adding user _postgresql That's just pkg_add -n's way of saying: "Look what i would do if you hadn't given me -n!" See OpenBSD/Delete.pm subs delete and OpenBSD/Add.pm sub NewAuth::install for details. Yours, Ingo
