Ref. https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-current/2025-March/007170.html (from 10 Mar 2025). In my case: * I needed both libmd.so.7 and libutil.so.10. * The cited circumvention (copying the missing libraries from /usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/tmp/lib/ to /lib) proved effective. * The systems being updated had generally been getting regular weekly updates, tracking stable/14 for the last couple of years, with the "build" part being done on a machine that is better suited to the task, which then NFS-exports its /usr/src & /usr/obj to the "client" machines. They then install to a DESTDIR that is a different bootable slice (so "rollback" is just "reboot from the old slice"). * This update was from stable/14-n273128-f9d671f726ac (28 Dec 2025) to stable/15-n281645-785d429c2b93 (31 Dec 2025). I'm posting in the hope that doing so might make others' circumventions a bit faster. :-} Peace, david -- David H.
