Greetings! I've noticed that questions- frequently gets many people asking about "ld.so" problems that they've had since upgrading to 3.x from 2.2.x and the answer to their problem is almost always the same.
Therefore I'd like to make sure that the following information is accurate before I submit it to the docproj. Thanks! 500a501,511 > > <sect1> > <heading>I've upgraded from 2.2.x to 3.x and now I get ld.so errors</heading> > <p>3.x FreeBSD systems by default use a different binary format from the > 2.2.x systems.
