AUTHOR: kensmith@FreeBSD.org
|
||||
|
||||
The shared library version number of all shared libraries built as
|
||||
part of the baseline system has been incremented in both RELENG_6
|
||||
and HEAD. The overall goal is to make handling of the compat library
|
||||
infrastructure easier. Each new release branch will have different
|
||||
version numbers for all of the shared libraries and the compat ports
|
||||
can simply include all of the shared libraries from the previous
|
||||
release.
|
||||
|
||||
If you update your system using normal cvsup/rebuild/reinstall
|
||||
mechanisms the old versions of the libraries will still be on your
|
||||
system so your old ports executables will continue to work.
|
||||
But you definitely should plan on recompiling and reinstalling all
|
||||
of your installed ports so they get relinked against the new libraries.
|
||||
If you don't take this step as time goes on "normal" updates and
|
||||
installs run the risk of having executables relying on both the new
|
||||
and old versions of the libraries which would cause big problems.
|
||||
|
||||
It will take some time for the pre-built packages available on the
|
||||
FTP mirror sites to be rebuilt against the new libraries. If you
|
||||
want to update your ports using the pre-built packages watch the
|
||||
mailing lists for when the rebuilt packages become available.
