Re: set : illegal option -o pipefail error while trying to upgrade pkg.

Hello Warner,

Thanks for your help. But unfortunately your solution didn't work. After
having followed your instructions carefully :

Save a copy of /bin/sh. Check out stable/13 (or 12 if the following fails).

It asked me to copy some new libraries from FreeBSD 14.0 to the /usr/lib32
and /lib directories of the FreeBSD 10.4 system. I copied all the libraries
requested and at the end,it gave the following error :

/lib/libc.so.7: version FBSD_1.6 required by /bin/sh not found

so,I have changed the flag that does not allow me to rename it with the
command :

# chflags noschg libc.so.7

and I've copied the libc.so.7 file that's on the directory /lib of the
FreeBSD 14 to the same directory of the FreeBSD 10.4 system and I've
rebooted. Unfortunately it hasn't been accepted. The error is the following
one :

/lib/libc.so.7 : unsupported relocation type 37 in non-PLT relocations

What has been my mistake ? Maybe using FreeBSD 14 is wrong ?
