From the CVS logs for ports/emulators/linux_base/Makefile: RELEASE_3_2_0: 1.25 [...] ---------------------------- revision 1.26 date: 1999/07/21 10:41:35; author: marcel; state: Exp; lines: +158 -32 linux_base is the reincarnation of linux_lib and obsoletes both linux_lib and linux-base. Both will be removed from the ports collection at the proper time. linux_base uses a subset of packages from a Red Hat 5.2 release to populate /compat/linux. There's no functional difference between linux-base and linux_base. The name of the latter is preferred over the name of the former. Reviewed by: Tim Supervised by: Satoshi ---------------------------- So 3.2-RELEASE went out with a RedHat 5.2 -derived Linuxulator. The one we have now is still 5.2 -derived. Ciao, Sheldon.
