If you do this, you need to make sure you're generating compatible binaries. In this case, you seem to be generating binaries that are targetted for an older release than FreeBSD 6.0. In order to run 5.x binaries on FreeBSD 6.0, you need to install the compat5x port and build with the corresponding kernel option. > * How can I know whether or not it is save to delete libxpg4.a, > libxpg4.so, libxpg4.so.3, and libxpg4_p.a from /usr/lib on the machines > where they are present?

A 6.0 binary of bacula indeed will not try to link to this nonexistent library.
