Description

Forum thread: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=87336.msg481876#msg481876

On upgrade, there are loads of /usr/lib linker symlinks not updated and pointing to obsoleted nonexistent libs on full installs, breaking things on the way. Some examples:

/usr/lib/libcrypto.so -> /lib/libcrypto.so.6
$ ls -l /lib/libcrypto.so.6
ls: /lib/libcrypto.so.6: No such file or directory

/usr/lib/libmd.so -> /lib/libmd.so.5
$ ls -l  /lib/libmd.so.5
ls: /lib/libmd.so.5: No such file or directory

$ ls -l /usr/lib/libusb.so*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel     11 Jan 24 06:00 /usr/lib/libusb.so -> libusb.so.2
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  65068 Jan 22 22:07 /usr/lib/libusb.so.3

/usr/lib/libufs.so -> /lib/libufs.so.5
$ ls -l /lib/libufs.so.5
ls: /lib/libufs.so.5: No such file or directory

No such issue exists on nanobsd.

Thanks. I assume the only way to test this is to wait for 2.2.1 :)

Likely, (or build from source) but 2.2.1 likely not that far away, either.

Well, all I can say is that this is definitely not fixed. Tested with 2.2.1-DEVELOPMENT-i386-20150213-1429 snapshot.

$ ls -l /usr/lib/libusb.so*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel     11 Feb 13 22:51 /usr/lib/libusb.so -> libusb.so.2
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  65068 Feb 13 21:56 /usr/lib/libusb.so.3

$ ls -l /usr/lib/libufs.so*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  16 Feb 13 22:51 /usr/lib/libufs.so -> /lib/libufs.so.5
$ ls -l /lib/libufs.so.5
ls: /lib/libufs.so.5: No such file or directory

$ ls -l /usr/lib/libcrypto.so*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  19 Feb 13 22:51 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so -> /lib/libcrypto.so.6
$ ls -l /lib/libcrypto.so.6
ls: /lib/libcrypto.so.6: No such file or directory

Still broken. Really, I feel somehow the point gets missed here - is there actually some upgrade script to clean up the stale mess? Fixing it on newer builds will not clean up the mess on current installs.

The symlinks in the full update files are pointing to the wrong file for some of those, which appears to be the source of the remaining issue. They just need to be corrected and existing installs will be fine post-upgrade.

It was probably caused by a problem on builder. I checked latest snapshot and all symlinks are valid.

This might be fixed on a fresh install, it definitely is not fixed on upgraded system -- which is the whole point of this bug.

I was looking at something wrong last night, the symlinks within the update files are correct, they're just not overwriting what's there already.
