Problems with security/gnupg update

V

Hi all,

I faced a problem when updating security/gnupg today.

Code: 
===>   gnupg-2.0.16_3 depends on shared library: ksba.17 - not found
===>    Verifying install for ksba.17 in /usr/ports/security/libksba
===>   Returning to build of gnupg-2.0.16_3
Error: shared library "ksba.17" does not exist
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/security/gnupg.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/security/gnupg.

I re-installed security/libksba but it didn't help. Ports tree is up-to-date.

Any advice how to solve the problem?
 
Create symlink

hi, you must create symlink
Code: 
cd /usr/local/lib/
ln -s /usr/local/lib/libksba.so.18 libksba.so.17
and recompile gnupg and others

No, no, no, NO! Don't EVER do that!

First: Really never do this!

Just a guess: i would update the portstree and ports and then i would try the port security/libksba before compiling gnupg.
 
I've just updated the ports tree and see that a new version of security/gnupg has been released few hours ago. Upgrading to the new version right now. I hope that the problem will be solved in this version.

Will keep you updated.

I did this few hours ago and it didn't work. But now the new version (it was released just minutes/hours ago) fixed the bug. This topic can be marked as "solved".

Thank you, everybody!

If libksba.so.18 was missing but version 17 was installed, it means you need to update that port *and all the ports that depend on it* (see Upgrading FreeBSD Ports for more detail).

Soft-linking an earlier version as a later one is deceiving the system. It may work sometimes, for some things, but it's patching over one problem with another problem.

http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/fakelib/fastfakelib is a little Ruby program I slapped together a while back to detect these fake libraries.
 
A few minutes ago /usr/ports/UPDATING got updated:
20101216:
AFFECTS: users of security/libksba
AUTHOR: glarkin@FreeBSD.org

libksba has been updated to 1.1.0, and the shared library version has
increased from .17 to .18.

Directly- and indirectly-dependent ports have had their PORTREVISION
bumped to facilitate rebuilding. Please rebuild the dependent ports
with your preferred upgrading tool:

# portupgrade -rf security/libksba
-or-
# portmaster -w -r security/libksba

If there are still ports on your system that require ksba.so.17 (either
in ${LOCALBASE}/lib/compat/pkg, or non-existent), _please_ file a PR so
that a correct direct dependency can be added.

Once you are satisfied that no ports still depend on the old shared
library version (libksba.so.17), you can safely delete it from the
${LOCALBASE}/lib/compat/pkg directory if it is present there.
