Thanks Stuart! As usual you are above and beyond when it comes to helping people in OpenBSD community. I think I know what happened. I got a ports tree one week too late to be as close to release as I wanted. I picked that Ruby hiccup in collectd from early August. Anyhow last time I did this for 5.5 release my end of February snapshot is still running on half a dozen machines (207 days uptime and counting :)). Most Kind Regards, Predrag
