Hello everybody,
I am trying to do a fresh install using a current snapshot (tried it with
the snapshot from yesterday and today) on i386. I am downloading from
'mirror.switch.ch' and 'ftp.de.openbsd.org'. After installation, I try to
install some packages that I need (from
pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/i386).
I get the report of a wrong libc available:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
# pkg_add libiconv-1.9.2p3.tgz
Can't install libiconv-1.9.2p3.tgz: lib not found c.39.3
Even by looking in the dependency tree:
Maybe it's in a dependent package, but not tagged with @lib ?
(check with pkg_info -K -L)
If you are still running 3.6 packages, update them.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
As expected the libc is c.40.0
I assume that because of the imminent release of OpenBSD 4.0, the packages
are not properly updated. But I cannot remember to have seen an
announcement. It might very well be that I have missed it, as the signal
to noise ration on this mailinglist has not been too good recently.
Do I have to switch to using ports? Any other fix for the problem?
Bernd
