https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D208434 Bug ID: 208434 Summary: emulators/linux_base-c6 compat.linux.osrelease info out of date for FreeBSD 10.3 RC3? Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: emulation@FreeBSD.org Reporter: papowell@astart.com Flags: maintainer-feedback?(emulation@FreeBSD.org) Assignee: emulation@FreeBSD.org In the FreeBSD Handbook linuxemu-lbc-install.html 10.2. Configuring Linux= =C2=AE Binary Compatibility (as of 31 Mar 2016): The emulators/linux_base-c6 package or port is the easiest way to install a base set of Linux=C2=AE libraries and binaries on a FreeBSD system. To inst= all the port: # printf "compat.linux.osrelease=3D2.6.18\n" >> /etc/sysctl.conf # sysctl compat.linux.osrelease=3D2.6.18 # pkg install emulators/linux_base-c6 On FreeBSD 10.3 RC3 the default osrelease value is 2.6.32. Perhaps these instructions should be modified to reflect the version of linux base? i.e. Use sysctl compat.linux.osrelease to check the version ... Perhaps during installation the linux_base install would check to see if the version is set to the correct level and if not then terminate the insta= ll with instructions to set the base level. On the other hand, if this only effects FreeBSD 9.3 and earlier, then indicate that the osrelease needs only to be set on FreeBSD 9.3 and earlier. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
