      Hi

      Was looking forward to test the new and improved network performance with FreeBSD 7.0 but Iperf seems to have a broken dependency
      I get the following message when trying Iperf with pfSense-Full-Update-1.2.1-TESTING-SNAPSHOT-20080709-1913

      iperf

      /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libstdc++.so.6" not found, required by "iperf"

      Looks easy to fix, but I don't know

        I think the developers do not focus on packages at this point in time. As we know, this is still a beta release.

          It's not even beta.
          It's alpha alpha. ;)

            libstdc++.so.6 is a FreeBSD 6.x library - 1.2.1 will have libstdc++.so.7.

            How have you installed iperf? If it was with pkg_add, pkg_delete and pkg_add over again. If it was through a pfSense package, you could still try removing and reinstalling it. If all else fails, install the compat6x package, though that is the least preferred solution.

              I have only tried to remove and reinstall the package using the GUI.

                  All the packages are apparently broken, trying to install 6.x versions on 7.0, which is what will cause the specific error you're seeing.

                    But it should be installing 7.x packages.

                      I did an upgrade from 1.2 so maybe I have to do a full ISO install, but it is not exactly the best solution for current 1.2 owners using pfsense in a production environment if this is not solved before 1.2.1 release.

                        This is still an issue for me on a full iso fresh install of 1.2.1 from today.
