many packages does not work after upgarde libxml2 to new version

[mfaridi]

this morning I use cvsup and after that I use

portmaster

to upgrade my pakcages to new one , and libxml2 upgrade to new version and update from

2.6.27

to

2.7.8

and after that my gnome does not work good and when screensaver start , my gnome kill and I have to start in again with

startx

other packages like

chrome

and

pidgin

can not start and I see error like this

/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libxml2.so.5: version LIBXML2_2.5.0 required by /usr/local/bin/chrome not defined

and like this

/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libxml2.so.5: version LIBXML2_2.4.30 required by /usr/local/lib/libpurple.so.7 not defined

if I want upgrade gnome-applets to new one I see error about

libxml

and it can not upgrade ,
I go to Places option and I want open Home Folder and Desktop and Computer , but all of them can not open and I can not use them , I think all of them are depend on libxml

libxml2 - broke many things

After upgrade to libxml2-2.7.8 a lot of things broke. Mainly for me Apache 2.2:

Syntax error on line 105 of /usr/local/etc/apache22/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/libexec/apache22/libphp5.so into server: /usr/local/lib/libxml2.so.5: version LIBXML2_2.5.2 required by /usr/local/libexec/apache22/libphp5.so not defined

What is the simplest method to go back to 2.5.2 ?

 

[rdunkle]

I fixed the problem by running portdowngrade.
/usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portdowngrade

I went back to libxml2-2.7.7. Apache and Gnome are now back to normal.

Discussed on the ports mailing list: problem, cause, solution.

The port will probably be updated soon.

I have this problem too and report at this post

http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=19725

A patch is linked in my response to that thread. The longer-term solution is to wait for an update to the port, which will probably happen soon.

The libxml2 port has been updated to 2.7.8_1. I hope that the issue has been fixed in this version.

None of those links work, but the portupdates I did in the last twelve hours caused no problems, whereas one I did about fifteen hours ago caused a lib error. So the port should be safe to upgrade now (libxml2-2.7.8_1).

So , Do I have to reinstall all packages ?

 

[wblock@]

No, just deinstall/install libxml2.

 

[mfaridi]

Ok , I wish this method solve my problem and I do not have to reinstall all packages , I use portmaster to upgrade libxml2

I understand what is happening, a library is not updated.
The truth is mid-roll I see what I say and a bit complicated for me.
I say if I install FreeBSD first and then upgrade the ports tree before installing anything ????? for me it's easier that way.
I do not mind reinstalling I have nothing on the server and also the installation would practice again.

#pkg_add -r cvsup-without-gui
#pkg_add -r portupgrade
#ee /etc/make.conf

and the beginning of the file add the following lines

SUP_UPDATE=yes
SUP=/usr/local/bin/cvsup
SUPFLAGS= -g -L 2
SUPHOST=cvsup.uk.FreeBSD.org
SUPFILE=/usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile
PORTSSUPFILE=/usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile
DOCSUPFILE=/usr/share/examples/cvsup/doc-supfile

Now to update

#cd /usr/ports
#make update

and after install de ports that Ineed.

Thankyou veru much for the atention because without your is more difucult for me.
You should know that I have only been 2 or 3 weeks with freeBSD and do not know what I had to read for hours but hey so is freeBSD important thing is that I have the determination to achieve it.
Greetings

The links work now. I was going to fix them, but they worked. Something to do with how or when the mailing list archives are generated, apparently.

manyblue, your problem has nothing to do with the subject of this topic. Please do not hijack other people's topics, open your own.

Updating the ports tree and installing the latest version of textproc/libxml2 should work.

 

[mfaridi]

my problem solve by update port tree and update libxml2 solve and everything work good
