Instead, it's looking in my basic /var/lib/rpm. Am I suspose to have a symbolic link in my /var? Since 'rpm' isn't really a Linux application, but instead is a port -- yes? So it won't look in the shadow fs. How should this be setup? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
