My OctoPkg sees red


Running on dedicated PC : freebsd-version -kru
13.2-RELEASE-p10
13.2-RELEASE-p10
13.2-RELEASE-p10
can I haz install or must I go to 13.3 first??

upgrade not perfect : e.g.
mpe@NomadBSD ~> qpdfview

(:3076): Gtk-WARNING **: 14:15:44.074: Kan themamodule niet vinden in modulepad: ā€˜murrine’,

(:3076): Gtk-WARNING **: 14:15:44.074: Kan themamodule niet vinden in modulepad: ā€˜murrine’,

(:3076): Gtk-WARNING **: 14:15:44.074: Kan themamodule niet vinden in modulepad: ā€˜murrine’,
Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (5.15.12) with this library (5.15.13)
fish: Job 1, ā€˜qpdfview’ terminated by signal SIGABRT (Abort)
mpe@NomadBSD ~ [SIGABRT]>
Here we go again, bleh!

P.S. I can always fall back on Brave as a fine .pdf reader (as well as browser)
This is a Linux app though…

Well I’ll be darned : reinstalling solved it
Installing selected packages…

Qt depends on a UTF-8 locale, and has switched to ā€œC.UTF-8ā€ instead.

a whole bunch of menu items like Leave, Telegram, qpdfview working again.

As a side note : " Why Do You Talk to Yourself? "
### Problem-Solving

Talking to yourself can also be a way to work through problems you might be facing. This tactic, known as self-explaining, can help people monitor their progress and improve their performance as they work through a problem.

Before I did the ā€œquarterly mega package updateā€ (almost 700 packages!) on a NomadBSD system, I as a routine went to our forum to see if it sparked problems… (it didn’t - great :+1: )
…and created a new boot environment (sudo bectl create big-pkg-update), so I can reverse the upgrade if needed.

@MPe You’re one behind…

New to NBSD, scanning some posts, and couldn’t help but comment on this one.

Talking to yourself is one thing (and perfectly normal and fine, and even helpful as noted), but … if you start arguing with yourself, well … then you might have a problem!
:grin:

Hope the Bert the Turtle earworm has worked itself out since then. Of course, now I’ve possibly replanted it sooo … good luck with that. heh

I have opinions of my own - strong opinions - but I don’t always agree with them.
