Missing library after pkg install

S

sprock

Hello,

I just installed avahi from packages:

pkg install avahi
pkg install nss_mdns
echo 'avahi_daemon_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
service -R

The installation of avahi triggered a lot of upgrades.

Attempting to start synergy as my user:

/usr/local/bin/synergys --config /home/myuser/.config/synergy.conf

produces:

Code: 
Shared object "libxcb.so.2" not found, required by "libXtst.so.6"

and indeed that library is absent:

ls /usr/local/lib/libxcb.so.*

/
Code: 
usr/local/lib/libxcb.so.1      /usr/local/lib/libxcb.so.1.1.0

Before I mess anything else up, what should I do to resolve this?

Thanks,
sprock
 
There is a recent UPDATING entry that could apply to your case:
Code: 
20140416:
	AFFECTS: users of print/freetype2 textproc/libxml2 x11/pixman
	x11/libxcb and graphics/freeglut
	AUTHOR: x11@FreeBSD.org and gnome@FreeBSD.org

	The library version of the above libraries has been brought in line
	with what upstream expects. To do this all users of these ports need
	to be rebuilt. Portrevisions have been bumped as a consequence.

	# portmaster -r freetype2 -r libxml2 -r pixman -r freeglut -r libxcb
	or
	# portupgrade -rf freetype2 libxml2 pixman freeglut libxcb
I’ve been obliged to do it today after pkg upgrade broke libxcb, pixman and others, cascading to a dead Xorg server. I guess not all packages concerned by the last port updates have been upgraded.

portmaster -r libxcb is worth a try, I think.

Good luck!
 
I resolved this by running:

Code: 
pkg check -B

then

Code: 
pkg install <package>

for the packages shown to have broken dependencies.
