Hi,
I'm having some problems compiling/installing a few things (at the moment: ports-mgmt/pkg and world (trying to upgrade to 9.2). The problem lies in the linker (or so I think). For example, running make install for ports-mgmt/pkg results in the following:

Code: 
===>  Building for pkg-1.2.6
===> libpkg (all)
Warning: Object directory not changed from original /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg/work/pkg-1.2.6/libpkg

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -larchive

As I said, I'm running 8.4-PRERELEASE:

Code: 
> uname -a
FreeBSD my_host 8.4-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 8.4-PRERELEASE #1: Fri May 10 16:19:54 CEST 2013     root@my_host:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

And the weird thing about /usr/bin/ld not finding -larchive is that ldconfig -r gives this:

Code: 
> ldconfig -r | grep "larchive"
    60:-larchive.5 => /usr/lib/libarchive.so.5
    417:-larchive.14 => /usr/local/lib/libarchive.so.14
    589:-larchive.4 => /usr/local/lib/compat/libarchive.so.4

Similarly, when trying to make buildworld (in /usr/src) I reach a point where the linker cannot find -lutil, yet again:

Code: 
> ldconfig -r | grep "lutil"
    7:-lutil.8 => /lib/libutil.so.8
    193:-lgailutil.18 => /usr/local/lib/libgailutil.so.18
    666:-lutil.7 => /usr/local/lib/compat/libutil.so.7

So, what could possibly be wrong with my system?

Thanks a lot for the help!

Best,

Why are you still running a -PRERELEASE? FreeBSD 8.4-RELEASE came out in June 2013.
