| The specific list of library version number bumps is this (also available
| in UPDATING):
|
|     /lib/libm.so.2 -> libm.so.3
|     /lib/libreadline.so.4 -> libreadline.so.5
|     /usr/lib/libhistory.so.4 -> libhistory.so.5
|     /usr/lib/libopie.so.2 -> libopie.so.3
|     /usr/lib/libpcap.so.2 -> libpcap.so.3
|
| We specifically did not arrange for anything to remove the old
| versions of the libraries - that is something best left to you folks
| to determine when you want it done.  At the point the old libraries
| are removed any ports or other programs you have compiled that are not

| these libraries get removed at some point if you expect to be running

| (which are not there yet but will be soon).  Use your judgement on

This probably deserves a /usr/ports/UPDATING entry as well since libm
will affect quite a few ports (to put it mildly).
