Ok thanks. Running fine on 5.2.2 for now. Will try LATEST again in a week or so and if I’m still confused will ask on the users mail list.

The binaries do get rebuilt – however this may not even be the cause; I am making a wild guess.

Yes to binaries, I install from a LATEST stick periodically, and use pkg from there on, with my personal stuff dot files etc. pulled from a private repo. Does the binary repo get rebuilt at some point to come back into sync? Don’t think I want to start building large things on my laptop. Thanks for the reply.

Are you building xorg and xfce or installing binaries with pkg? If you are using pkg, it’s probably built with a different gcc. Try building with dports, perhaps?

I’m having library issues with snapshots/x86_64/DragonFly-x86_64-LATEST-IMG.img since this change, at least I suspect they are related. Installing a daily build from usb, booting a desktop xorg+xfce fails on “libstdc++.so.9”. Have tried a couple days.
