libintl.so.6

When trying to open various applications in freebsd 6.2 i keep getting this error message spat at me:

/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libintl.so.6" not found, required by " "

any ideas?

Yeah, you upgraded/installed some port that depends on gettext. And it's expecting a version that isn't installed.

Install ports-mgmt/portupgrade and run portupgrade -rf gettext. This will rebuild gettext and anything that depends on it.

Yea, i didnt read update and the answer was sitting in there waiting for me :rolleyes:

I actually have to manually rebuild all the packages that this depends on, this should be interesting.

But thanks for the reply

portupgrade -rf gettext will take care of that for you.

Thank you very much for sharing this post. The update is fixing 389 packages...
