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.

I pushed a fix for this on tools
- Affected Version changed from All to 2.2
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*

$ 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.
$ cat /etc/version.buildtime

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.

- Assignee changed from Renato Botelho to Chris Buechler
most recent snapshot didn't quite catch that commit, new ones building now.
- Status changed from Feedback to Resolved
that definitely fixed the remaining issue, both 32 and 64 bit.

Confirmed. Thanks. ;)
