Had a very bad night after upgrading my main machine from a September-based
current to a -current as of yesterday, for many, many of the programs
running on that machine i got an error message like
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: ..... Unknown symbol "__sF"
which somehow came from this ancient library in /usr/lib:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 11 Mar 29 2002 libgcc.so -> libgcc.so.2
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 21343 Apr 4 1999 libgcc.so.2
moving the libraries out of the way just gave an error about not finding
libgcc.so.2.
One of the affected programs was postfix. After nothing helped, i installed
a complete fresh ports tree and recompiled postfix-current, but when
make installing it, even there it complained about Unknown symbol "__sF"
and i was not able to install it.
Luckily i had saved the /usr/obj and /usr/src, downgrading to the old
current stopped the nightmare and i'm writing this again from the
September-based current.
Is there help in sight or do i have to do a complete, fresh reinstall
on this machine (Oh nooooo .... ;-) ) ?
tired,
hellmuth

There is a difference between an open mind and a hole in the head.
