I tried to install and run x11-servers/xorg-fontserver on a FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT machine. When I added "xfs_enable=\"YES\"" to my /etc/rc.conf and rebooted, xfs didn't start and complained it can't find libfreetype.so.9 library. If I add ldconfig to the list of dependencies, everything works. This malfunction is caused by the fact that on -current (and on future FreeBSD 7.0) not only basesystem scripts are called in order specified by rcorder script, but also X11 and local scripts. If xfs startup script doesn't contain ldconfig dependency, it is called before ldconfig (on -current) and therefore can't find libfreetype.so.9 library. Fix: Here is a trivial patch: How-To-Repeat: Install x11-servers/xorg-fontserver and enable it. on 7.0-CURRENT it will fail to start and complain about libfreetype.so.9 library
Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-ports-bugs->freebsd-x11 Over to maintainer
State Changed From-To: open->closed Ah, so that's what was wrong with it. Committed. Thanks.
