The lm_sensors port is updated to version 3.0.1. New library interface is not backwards compatible with an old one. Applications that, have not yet merged the changes will not compile/work. For a brief list of changes see announcements [1], [2]. The only directly affected ports in core/opt/contrib/xfce/gnome/kde are: net-snmp xfce4-sensors-plugin kdeadmin (There might be others, not listing it as a dependency.) I've applied a patch to net-snmp. Xfce repo has it's own lm_sensors port and patch for xfce4-sensors-plugin. Kde maintainer will receive a copy of this mail. Patch for kdebase (on which kdeadmin depends) is at [3]. Note: as of current (implicit) policy xfce/gnome/kde are preferred to supply their own versions of all dependencies. From this version a separate i2c-tools package exists. While it's not a direct requirement it is listed in '# Depends on:' header of lm_sensors to be sure more chips will work. To upgrade from a previous version run: 'prt-get remove lm_sensors' (as i2c-tools overlaps old package files) 'prt-get depinst lm_sensors' For those, having adjusted /etc/sensors.conf - take a look at sensors-conf-convert script before removing old configuration file.
