upgrading current to 5.4 beta results in libc.so.68.4 loading problem
Hi everybody !
I've just upgraded my i386-current box to 5.4-beta .. when I startx I get this error message: Code:
xauth : can't load library 'libc.so.68.4' |
|

At my local mirror, the Xenocara build is two days behind the base system:
Code:
-rw-r--r-- 1 anonftp wheel 57069846 Jul 11 21:30 base54.tgz -rw-r--r-- 1 anonftp wheel 48514699 Jul 11 21:30 comp54.tgz -rw-r--r-- 1 anonftp wheel 523960 Jul 11 21:30 etc54.tgz -rw-r--r-- 1 anonftp wheel 2629926 Jul 11 21:30 game54.tgz -rw-r--r-- 1 anonftp wheel 9958792 Jul 11 21:30 man54.tgz -rw-r--r-- 1 anonftp wheel 10817007 Jul 09 11:36 xbase54.tgz -rw-r--r-- 1 anonftp wheel 64808 Jul 09 11:36 xetc54.tgz -rw-r--r-- 1 anonftp wheel 39802022 Jul 09 11:36 xfont54.tgz -rw-r--r-- 1 anonftp wheel 26577552 Jul 09 11:36 xserv54.tgz -rw-r--r-- 1 anonftp wheel 4476851 Jul 09 11:36 xshare54.tgz

Hi daemonfowl.
I think you'll have to wait. I tried to install OpenBSD 5.4 i386, and I've got the same error than you. I tried to find libc : Code:
find / -name libc.* So, maybe libc.so.68.4 has been replaced by libc.so.69.0, but the library isn't implemented yet. Wait and see... Quote:

Greetings , Teacher jggimi ! Thank you for the output !
I've 2 more questions please : If I sysmerged only etc54.tgz , would I still have had a Xenocara issue ? I lost my login shell .. so I have to 'xterm -ls' (although I suspect it relates to this very upgrade) Thanks LeFrettchen .. be it so then.It won't be a waiting for godot.

This has nothing to do with sysmerge(8). That program is for merging changes to files in /etc and /var.
Your problem was caused by a "library bump." In this case, the C library had a major bump, from 68.4 to 69.0, due to asr symbol changes. Briefly, when Xenocara was built (on June 9), the C library was still at 68.4. You upgraded from a system with an even earlier library, so you do not have 68.4 in your /usr/lib. A fresh install would have the same issue. The library bump occurred 34 hours ago at this writing. I expect a Xenocara build to follow soon. If you are impatient, you can build it on a modern i386 machine in about an hour, if you have the source code (/usr/xenocara by default). See the man page I referenced in my post above (step 5) and also FAQ 5 for guidance on building Xenocara, if you are interested. Last edited by jggimi; 14th July 2013 at 01:29 AM. Reason: clarity |
