Hello everyone. I posted that information regarding the 5.4->5.5 upgrade breaking (and subsequent break when following someone's advice just to take it up to 5.6 since it was already horked like that) a few days back here. I was going to post some google groups and/or openbsd.org links to the previous threaded posts, but I'm not having luck digging them up on google groups, and it appears that majordomo on the openbsd.org site won't give summaries from previous months.
Regardless, I just wanted to find out... I usually get people willing to give some advice, or at least willing to laugh and tell me the lesson that I needed to know on here. I was really kind of surprised that I haven't heard anything back on this for so long... So, can anybody tell me, is my situation just so hosed that it's helpless? I mean, should I stop waiting for potential ways to fix this dependency hosed box and reinstall and try to find a way to re-inject all of my data into it, or are the gurus just swamped with new years tasks? :) If any of you could give me some feedback I'd really appreciate it. Like I said with the issue when I was first mentioning it, this system is really integral to a lot of the work that I do, and it's my sole external facing server... It's like a knife in my gut not having it working. Anything is very much appreciated. Feel free to hit me up via personal email, too, if you'd rather avoid public posting for some reason. I hope you all have a better year than last. :) -Damon
