If you're installing what's in your friendly neighborhood mirror's /pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/$arch/ directory, it's not OpenBSD 4.5 you're installing, but rather a -currentish snapshot of what will at some time in the future evolve into what becomes 4.6. > I tried the install45.iso from 6, 7, 8-June.

But maybe I am wrong. In snapshots, base system vs package mismatches happen, but they do tend to cure themselves (think pkg_add -u) within a few hours or days. If something you desperately need is broken and you think your local build will complete correctly sooner, you could always try to check out a fresh ports tree and build from there. > Can someone tell me please what's the issue here and how should I > approach the install method from snapshots? > Am I dong something wrong ? When tracking snapshots, bumps do happen, but they're mostly harmless. - Peter -- Peter N. M.
