Ok, got lucky: linux sticks everything in /lib, which is in the
default path before /usr/local/lib, hence the madness, and hence why
portupgrade won't fix it (it rebuilds most bsd .so's in
/usr/local/lib).

Just rm every .so file that gets complained about missing dependancies
from /lib, and you're back in the land of the living!

That was "fun"

Anyone know where the "right" place for rpm to put real unix libs for
use with compat?  compat/lib?

Anyway, thanks, all

Sure.  First, however, please note that it is (presumably past) time to obtain 
a working backup mechanism for any system that you care about.

Consider the output of "find /usr/local/lib -mtime -2" (or some other # of 
days).  You can use pkg_which to identify the port which should have provided a 
native FreeBSD library; use pkg_delete -f _portname_ or similar measures to 
more forcefully remove these Linux .so's.

rpm trashed my system with linux so's

2010-02-11 Thread Steve Franks
Yeah, I admit it, was really stupid of me to try.  All those linux
ports go willy-nilly running rpm's thru your system, so when
linux-flash-plugin-f10 crashed after install, I just *had* to hunt
down it's dependancies and try installing them.

Main thing is that portupgrade -f gamin is *not* putting fresh bsd
copies overtop the bad linux ones I stupidly installed, and anything
with gtk is now useless (shared object 'libselinux.so.1" not found,
required by "libgio-2.0.so.0"), which is pretty much everything.

Short of reinstalling everything from CD, do I have options?

Bugger.
