(Sometimes it can temporarily get you out of a hole if you are running snapshots and have updated to a new version and new packages aren't yet available, but still the _right_ answer in that case is to wait for new packages). -- Please keep replies on the mailing list.

O 22/08/21 ás 20:21, Scott Vargovich escribiu: Let me preface what I'm about to say: I'm a long time Linux user, but I'm very much a novice to openbsd. As a Linux user keep in mind that OpenBSD is a complete operating system, so you can get a lot of information by just navigating through https://www.openbsd.org, clicking links and looking around. I know the list says to "do your homework" before posting here, but I don't even know where to begin to do the homework you're suggesting. From the Netiquette section in https://www.openbsd.org/mail.html: * INSTALL.* text files in the installation directories * The FAQ: https://www.openbsd.org/faq/index.html. Check out the «Installing Packages» (https://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq15.html#PkgInstall) * Manpages (available online in https://man.openbsd.org), starting with afterboot(8) * Mailing list archive in https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc Here's the error I'm getting while attempting to install qutebrowser and a number of other packages: Can't install libsoup2.72.0 because of libraries library sqlite3.37.12 not found I believe there's some sort of symlinking I need to do to point to the right sqlite3 library, but I have no clue where the link needs to go and what it needs to point to. Please help me figure this out and fix it. Thanks in advance, I did a fresh install on QEMU and qutebrowser installed without problems. Did you do anything weird with the libraries?

libsqlite3 errors while attempting to install numerous packages...
Let me preface what I'm about to say: I'm a long time Linux user, but I'm very much a novice to openbsd. I know the list says to "do your homework" before posting here, but I don't even know where to begin to do the homework you're suggesting. Here's the error I'm getting while attempting to install qutebrowser and a number of other packages: Can't install libsoup2.72.0 because of libraries library sqlite3.37.12 not found I believe there's some sort of symlinking I need to do to point to the right sqlite3 library, but I have no clue where the link needs to go and what it needs to point to. Please help me figure this out and fix it. Thanks in advance, -- --- <>< Scott Vargovich <>< Ham Call Sign: KE8CQC GMRS Call: WQXJ287 ---
