AFFECTS: users of x11/nvidia-driver
AUTHOR: danfe@FreeBSD.org
There appears to be a conflict with xorg-server 1.4 and previous version
of nvidia-driver: new xorg-server had plist change that made upgrading of
nvidia-driver bomb out with the following error:
===> Checking if x11/nvidia-driver already installed
mv: rename /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/libwfb.so to
/usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/XXX-libwfb.so.%%.xorg-server-1.4_2,1:
No such file or directory
*** Error code 1
To remedy the situation, deinstall any instance of nvidia-driver you might
have, then reinstall xorg-server, e.g.:
# cd /usr/ports/x11-servers/xorg-server
# make install -DFORCE_PKG_REGISTER
After that, new nvidia-driver will install cleanly.
