Hi Sahil and Matthias, thanks for you replies. I did not know about the subtlety about RELEASE, STABLE, etc... with pkg_add as i'm fairly new to FreeNAS and FreeBSD.
So I installed a real FreeBSD 8.2-LATEST in a VM and dug more. It turns out that : - the dnsmasq package is not broken, but i don't see why it needs the EXACT version libidn-1.16 to really work (on a fresh system the exact libidn-1.16 gets installed) - when installing on a system that has a higher libidn (like 1.19...) pkg_add issues a warning but dnsmasq actually does not work, as it looks for 1.16 - the libidn-1.19 package actually gives you libidn.so.17 So... I ended up using the oldest trick : - ln -s libidn.so.16 libidn.so.17 And as hoped, it works. > Attempting to record package into /var/db/pkg/dnsmasq-2.55,1.. > Trying to record dependency on package 'pkg-config-0.25_1' with > 'devel/pkg-config' origin. > Trying to record dependency on package 'libiconv-1.13.1_1' with > 'converters/libiconv' origin. > Trying to record dependency on package 'gettext-0.18.1.1' with > 'devel/gettext' origin. > Trying to record dependency on package 'libidn-1.16' with 'dns/libidn' origin. > pkg_add: warning: package 'dnsmasq-2.55,1' requires 'libidn-1.16', but > 'libidn-1.19' is installed > Package dnsmasq-2.55,1 registered in /var/db/pkg/dnsmasq-2.55,1 > > *** To enable dnsmasq, edit /usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.conf and > *** set dnsmasq_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf[.local] > > [root@freenas ~]# /usr/local/sbin/dnsmasq > /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libidn.so.16" not found, required by > "dnsmasq" thanks for your help, Pierre Le 19 juin 2011 à 09:15, Sahil Tandon a écrit : > On Sat, 2011-06-18 at 22:37:36 +0200, Pierre PEYRONNEL wrote: > >> i'm trying to install on my FreeNAS 8.0 system (based on FreeBDS 8.2) >> the dnsmasq package as described on this page : >> http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=dnsmasq&stype=all >> >> where it says it needs libidn-1.19 >> >> but once installed (with pkg_add -r dnsmasq), i get the following : >> >> [root@freenas /usr/local/sbin]# ./dnsmasq /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared >> object "libidn.so.16" not found, required by "dnsmasq" >> >> - why isn't it linked with libidn.so ? i'm thinking it would prevent >> the version issue with this lib. > > pkg_add(1) fetched an older package of dnsmasq which, in turn, had been > linked against the older libidn library.
