You are attempting to run packages compiled on -current on an older system. Get the older version of the packages, or upgrade your system. One potential workaround that may cause problems when upgrading later is to: # ln /usr/lib/libc.so.2.1 /usr/lib/libc.so.3.0 # ldconfig -m This should work because the version number was bumped when interfaces were ripped out. The 2.1 should contain all of the interfaces needed by a 3.0 application.
