[NFDB-users] nfdb and OpenBSD 4.5?

[Bryan Allen]

I've run into a couple issues getting nfdb (from trunk) working on 4.5.

First off, 4.5's GD seems hosed:

$ perl -e 'use GD'
Can't load '/usr/local/libdata/perl5/site_perl/amd64-openbsd/auto/GD/GD.so' for module GD: Cannot load specified object at /usr/libdata/perl5/amd64-openbsd/5.10.0/DynaLoader.pm line 203.
 at -e line 1
Compilation failed in require at -e line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.

Looking at `objdump -p`, I seem to have all the deps for the Perl XO object and
libgd. I installed xbase by hand (as in an upgrade), if that matters.

Secondly, flowd seems to die if the logfile is a FIFO:

Sep  3 19:39:20 a-fw-sd flowd[9963]: start_log: lseek: Illegal seek
Sep  3 19:39:20 a-fw-sd flowd[17707]: child exited with status 1

This looks like an issue that was fixed a few years ago... regression?

Anyone have any workarounds for 4.5?

Also, the demo on dev.nfdb.com seems hosed. Empty database? :)

Cheers.
