I am hopeful at migrating some of the 32-bit Linux games I maintain to rl9 to take advantage of security and bug fixes. As they require SDL 1.2, they could possibly run with the sdl12-compat library. I have not tested this as of yet. In fact, I have not tested the port other than building, but I am sure it works. :D I do not want to continue down this path if it is totally wrong. However, I did create a port for linux-rl9-sdl20, which would be needed first. This required changes to Uses/linux.mk due to how packages are stored on the Rocky Linux site. The filename starts with "SDL2-2.26.0" while the directory it inhabits uses a lowercase "s". The patch worked for me under poudriere to fetch the base rl9 files and the new port by always making the subdirectory lowercase. Both patches are here: https://people.freebsd.org/~scf/linux-rl9/ Sean -- scf@FreeBSD.org
