I try to update but I am not sure how. I am usin FreeBSD 9.1 RC3 and I have in 
my make.conf WITH_PKGNG=yes and it works (I did pkg2ng long time ago). I use 
portmaster. If I put as I got after error of update:
WITHOUT_PKGNG=yes

- switch to pkgng:
1) Add WITHOUT_PKGNG to /etc/make.conf
2) Install ports-mgmt/pkg
3) Convert your package database by running pkg2ng
4) Remove WITHOUT_PKGNG from /etc/make.conf

*** [pre-everything] Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg.

than portmaster start with os many errors. Is it better to deinstal previous 
version and try to install 1.0.4, please?

Thanks.

No, actually that is teething problems with my code to ensure the
version numbers are set consistently.  As you can see, it doesn't work
reliably yet...

Good to hear.

 $ 

Could you show me the output from:

ldd /usr/local/bin/VBoxBalloonCtrl
objdump -p /usr/local/bin/VBoxBalloonCtrl

This one is odd, because it is clearly an application that certainly
should be able to find the shlibs it uses.  It's possibly dependent on
having LD_LIBRARY_PATH set in the environment, which is arguably a bug
in the port.

objdmp -p /usr/local/lib/libreoffice/program/configmgr.uno.so

This is presumably a loadable object rather than a shared library.

Cheers,

Matthew

That is the seat belt that means that you have WITH_PKGNG but you also have an
incomplete conversion to pkgng

It tests if there are any old package installed, and should leave you alone if
you have completly and cleanly switch to pkgng.

That should have been added long ago.

   NEEDED  VBoxRT.so
   NEEDED  VBoxXPCOM.so
   NEEDED  libstdc++.so.6
   NEEDED  libm.so.5
   NEEDED  libgcc_s.so.1
   NEEDED  libc.so.7
   RPATH   /usr/local/lib/virtualbox

Looks perfectly normal to me.  No idea why it isn't finding
/usr/local/lib/virtualbox/VBoxRT.so given that information.  I shall
investigate even further.

 $ objdump -p /usr/local/lib/libreoffice/program/configmgr.uno.so

   RPATH   $ORIGIN:$ORIGIN/../ure-link/lib
   RUNPATH $ORIGIN:$ORIGIN/../ure-link/lib

Using $ORIGIN twice in the same path and using both RPATH and RUNPATH.
OK.  I can fix that.

Cheers,

Matthew

So your conversion wasn't totally complete, for each of them (aka non corrupted)
test if they are in your pkgng database

pkg info gcc gawk etc.

I would like to.
But just getting used to svn and other new things since simple csup and

How do I pull it?
I have pkg-1.0.3_1 on a machine building packages for my laptop right now.

Install git, and then something like:

  git clone https://github.com/pkgng/pkgng.git
  cd pkgng
  git checkout release-1.0
  make

then you can run pkg-static from the pkg-static directory, or you can
'make install', and run pkg as usual.

There will be a pkg-1.0.4 release fairly soon though.

 In a past release cycle there was indeed a last-minute fix that had

Please, don't work so hard!

ImageMagick required a re-installation of exactly ONE port on my
laptop, editors/emacs (which has now been fixed so it actually will
re-build). pcre was worse, but still I got everything for all of the
commits yesterday rebuilt in a few hours yesterday afternoon. The only
REAL issue was avahi-app which has a badly ordered set of lib
directories. (Yes, I should submit a PR to get this fixed.)

Install sysutils/bsdadminscripts and run:
pkg_libchk -o | grep LIB_THAT_GOT_BUMPED | cut -f1 -d: | sort | uniq  SOMEFILE
portmaster -D `cat SOMEFILE`

pkg_libchk will take a while. On my 2 year old Core i5 laptop it takes
around 6 minutes for my 1100 installed ports, but it does let you know
just how it is prograssing.

This will build a vastly smaller number of ports. You will probably
need to remove graphics/py-clutter from SOMEFILE if you have it
installed as it is BROKEN for the moment. There may be a couple of
others, as well.

If you use pkgng, please try editing /usr/local/sbin/pkg_libchk to
replace pkg_info with pkg info in all locations and let me know
how it works, . I'm hoping that will make it work with pkgng, but I
have no way to check as I can't currently use pkgng on any of my
systems, yet.

I'd like to draw people's attention to one of the newer capabilities of
pkgng as it's directly relevant to this problem.  You can use pkgng to
track which shared libraries are used by binaries in all packages.
Shared library use is determined by analysing the dynamic loading
information recorded in ELF binaries -- either executables or shared
libraries -- so it's pretty reliable.

The feature is turned off by default, but you can enable it by adding:

SHLIBS: YES

to ${LOCALBASE}/etc/pkg.conf and then generate the shlib info by:

pkg check -Ba

This will take a while on a system with lots of packages installed: it
will investigate every file installed by every package.  If you aren't
using a repo where the shlibs function is enabled, you'll have to use
pkg check thike this on any new pkgs you subsequently install.

Then, for example, you can find all the pkgs with files that link
against, say, libssh2 by:

worm:~:% pkg query -a %n-%v %B | grep libssh2
curl-7.24.0_1 libssh2.so.1

I whole-heatedly agree... but I know a little about release
engineering for a large project, especially when the release team is
unpaid and has to honor commitments to $real_job. Release engineering
is very detail-oriented and unforgiving.  This is not really
compatible with part-time work.

The RE must be focused, first ans foremost, on getting a release out
the door as quickly as possible and not to have any serious problems
with that release. This makes it very had to pull bakc and make
announcements or even update posted schedules. That is made even worse
by hte desire to make such communication accurate or at least useful.
Since there is a LOT of guessing involved in pulling together a
release (how long will Joe take to fix this problem or why are there
half a dozen reports of a serious issue with the RC, when no one else
can reproduce it or even figure out what part of the system is causing
it), RE folks are usually reticent about trying to give out any
information since it will most likely be inaccurate.

This is why I accept the line that it will be released when it is
ready. I really think it's about ready, but not even the head of the
9.1 RE team KNOWS when it will be ready, even if the  ISO builds are
started. There is many a slip twixt the cup and the lip.


Then they can communicate they don't know a date. People accept hearing:  
'because of unforeseen problems the expected date is unknown' in stead of  
'2012-10-29' (http://wiki.freebsd.org/Releng/9.1TODO).


Not knowing something is not an excuse for not communicating.

The release team (and developer team in general) know that
communication about 9.1-RELEASE hasn't been all that great. They've
been doing the focus on getting work done thing and yes,
unfortunately communication has suffered.

Let's all be supportive of them and the enormous amount of hard work
they put into trying to get a free release out there for people to
use; being critical like this is very likely going to have exactly the

Less communication rather than more? I would not be in favor of this.
YMMV, but it seems to me that this is more the way of large, secretive
corporations like Apple than it is of a collaborative open source project.
And it is important to have targets.

Transparency is vital. I do not mind justified schedule slippages,
so long as I can track progress and plan appropriately. It is when I
(and everyone else) are in the dark that things get difficult.

The release is official when, and only when, a signed email from the

In a past release cycle there was indeed a last-minute fix that had
to be made after the ISO had already started propogating.

There's politics in every organisation. There are ego clashes in every
organisation. Sometimes you'll fit in, sometimes you won't. If you
feel there are issues, find people inside the community who you do get
along well with and talk with them about it.

It sucks, yes. I'm one of those shut up and code already types and I
deal badly with politics. But somehow I have a commit bit and get away
with breaking things. :-)

 As for monetary donations: We are not a large corporation, and so could only

Even a $5k a year donation from 25 organisations is a significant
chunk of money to the foundation. Please don't believe that you can't
have a positive effect from a small donation. the foundation will
definitely benefit from any and all contributions, no matter how
small.

I'd rather see the Foundation funded from thousands of small donations
a year than a handful of big ones.

 time -- would be recovered many times over because folks like me wouldn't
 have any need to e-mail regarding status and projected schedules. ;-)

I whole-heatedly agree... but I know a little about release
engineering for a large project, especially when the release team is
unpaid and has to honor commitments to $real_job. Release engineering
is very detail-oriented and unforgiving.  This is not really
compatible with part-time work.

The RE must be focused, first ans foremost, on getting a release out
the door as quickly as possible and not to have any serious problems
with that release. This makes it very had to pull bakc and make
announcements or even update posted schedules. That is made even worse
by hte desire to make such communication accurate or at least useful.
Since there is a LOT of guessing involved in pulling together a
release (how long will Joe take to fix this problem or why are there
half a dozen reports of a serious issue with the RC, when no one else
can reproduce it or even figure out what part of the system is causing
it), RE folks are usually reticent about trying to give out any
information since it will most likely be inaccurate.

This is why I accept the line that it will be released when it is
ready. I really think it's about ready, but not even the head of the
9.1 RE team KNOWS when it will be ready, even if the  ISO builds are
started. There is many a slip twixt the cup and the lip.

FWIW: The ports tree is open now (ports branch was tagged).  The 9.1.0

 --Brett Glass

A few days ago I installed 9.0 and tested twice:
- updating security/errata
- updating ports tree with portsnap
- setting up the system for Linux, Java, browsers (as in Handbook)
- and then from ports to make work the usual suspects: cdrecord, smartmontools
It all seems to be OK until, after many subsequent ports tree updates,
I decided to update xterm, vlc, xfce, pan from ports.
If I managed to update some of them, then it seemed the dependencies hell
or something else started to take effect and I could not finish building them
because they were dying with errors.
I have done such an exercise in the past many times and I never failed to
bring my system to a stable state.
Only after this security compromise, time wise, things were so unstable.
I understand that releng people will build all packages once more right before
9.1 release, but perhaps caution is warranted - would 9.1-RC4 make sense ?

I recently upgraded in place from 8.3-STABLE to 9.1-PRE.  I needed to redo
the system because of the sec compromise just to be sure, so this seemed
to be a good time to do it.  So, using the now-preferred portsnap and
svn download mechanisms, I rebuilt the OS AND every single port.  Thus
far, I've not had a significant problem ... well, other than the fact
that when sasl rebuilds it does not restart the daemon and I couldn't
figure out why mail wasn't going out ...

Was also true for me to crash the 9.0 system with dependencies
inconsistency after some time. But! Try 9.1-RC3 and use PORTINSTALL
(ports-mgmt/portupgrade port) - see how beautiful life become when you
only type what program you wand and it gets installed from BINARY
PACKAGES with all necessary dependencies :-) So far I have no problem
at all with portinstall on two machines running 9.1-RC3 for some
weeks. PORTINSTALL should become a standard equipment of FreeBSD :-)

The reason I abandoned 9.1-RC? was the security update statement that
It is believed that the compromise may have occurred as early as the 19th
September 2012.
I looked at 9.1 release schedule and saw this:
Action   Expected Actual
RC1  2012-07-20  2012-08-23
RC2  2012-09-07  2012-10-09

and decided to drop the ball, go back to 9.0 and bring myself up from there.
The result was as described.

My prediction is 9.1 will be released the last day of Hanukkah and I will tell 
you why:

When I was a kid sometimes I would ask my patients to give me one big gift for 
Hanukkah instead of a small present each day. This would mean I would have to 
wait until the final day though. 

My assumption is that my Jewish mother has told re@  core@ of this preference

Hi,

It's definitely not targeted at you. The 9.1 stuff is an intersection of:

* personal issues with some of the people involved (ie, real life got
to them and that took precedence);
* the security incident;
* the freebsd cluster shuffling and reshuffling that was going on at
the same time

From my understanding there's enough hardware. Definitely not a
hardware specific problem. The foundation funds and provides plenty of
hardware, as well as yahoo and a few other companies. I don't think
we're short of i386/amd64 hardware.

It's honestly just an intersection of bad timing. Since it's a
volunteer project, it's on the timelines of the volunteers in
question.

I think people are right though when they comment on the lack of
communication from the project about this. See the list of things
above to understand why communication may not have been terribly
great. :-)

I'll amend my stuff that will help list:

* Donate to the freebsd foundation, along with opening discussions to
them about how your organisation uses / relies upon freebsd;
* Volunteer to join the release engineering / package building teams,
and actively donate manpower to the project.

Hi those eagerly awaiting,
Re-read Eitan's post of Sun, 9 Dec 2012 09:04:25 -0500 (15:04 CET)

Those with knowledge, time  enthusiasm can already build
their own 9.1-RELEASE from released public sources.  No longer need to wait.

As I wrote 3 local friends Fri, 07 Dec 2012 08:37:20 +0100
] In case you'r waiting to upgrade any production servers to latest release:
]  {
]  Although FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE has not been announced yet, it's available:

]  
]  The .iso images are not in ftp.freebsd.org or eg ftp2.de.freebsd.org yet,

]
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2012-December/041352.html

Clue to a quick check with CVS is/was
grep RELENG_9_1_0_RELEASE /usr/cvs/src/Makefile,v
grep RELEASE_9_1_0 /usr/cvs/ports/Makefile,v
but as CVS is about to disappear, what's a quick check for svn ?

Compliments to re@ team who have doubtless been working very hard,
probably on a problematic cluster base.  Hopefully there'll be less
When ? questions that might distract re@, now people realise it's
tagged  you can build yourself if you're in a rush.

ports/ is also tagged  available:
From: Thomas Abthorpe portmgr-secret...@freebsd.org
Date: Sun, 9 Dec 2012 19:59:09 +
To: po...@freebsd.org
(though no tag for that yet in preceeding cvs-cur 19073 )

Those who want this lot must wait till announcement (a few days I guess)
  binaries compiled at freebsd.org
+ for all architectures, 
+ packages build on freebsd.org cluster
+ docs 
+ iso's built
+ all ftp'd from master server to mirror servers globaly
+ Release Notes written by re@ team who are doubtless
  tired,  working flat out ;-)
+ all of that work to be done on a freebsd cluster that was 
  compromised  needed to be checked before the relase rolled,
