Hello everyone, I recently got myself a broadband internet connection and happily started upgrading a lot of software on my machine. Among others, I wanted to upgrade MozillaFirebird. Before the upgrade I used FireBird 0.7. Then I deinstalled the package - I really don't remember where I got the package... - and wanted to upgrade via ports. Unfortunately, I discovered that this was not a native version but a Linux version running in binary compatibility. ;-/ I'd rather have native build, since I know this is possible. Can I do so via ports? 'find /usr/ports -name *bird*' only comes up with linux-mozillafirebird in /usr/ports/www. Or do I have to build Firebird myself? Thanks in advance, Benjamin -- If cars had improved at [the computer industry's] rate, a Rolls Royce would now cost 10 dollars and get a billion miles per gallon. (Unfortunately, it would probably also have 200-page manual telling how to open the door.) -- Andrew Tanenbaum, "Introduction To Distributed Systems"
