Re: Re: port upgrade problem: libncurses.so.5.6 not found
yes, I found libncurses.so under /usr/lib, which is actual linked to libncurses.so.7 under /lib. And I also have libncurses.so.6 too. I did upgrade my system from 5 to 6 to 7. I didn't do a clean install, since there is so many to back up.

Mel's question applies as well (and is something that I've wondered too). Now I'm wondering this as well: How/why do you have libncurses* in /usr/local/lib? FreeBSD 7.0 comes with ncurses (see /usr/lib/libncurses.so.7). You must have some port or piece of software on your machine which is requiring an old (compat5x) version of libncurses, or you have a machine that has been upgraded from FreeBSD 5.x to 6.x to 7.x.

It's not weird at all. When a binary is linked to a shared library (during the linking phase), the library filename (libXXX.so.X.X) is stored in the binary, not "libXXX.so". I'm not sure how/why a rebuild xgettext is linking to what appears to be a very old version of libncurses. libncurses.so.5.6 would be for FreeBSD 5.x, I believe; my FreeBSD 6.x machines have libncurses.so.6, and my FreeBSD 7.x + CURRENT machines have libncurses.so.7. -- | Jeremy Chadwickjdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
