I had had VMware installed, but it stopped working when I updated my OS and I didn't want to re-pay, so I got VirtualBox today. I've got an installed 10-beta3, but I can't get source code on it. I tried to use folder sharing, since I have FreeBSD sources on my mac; that got me an error about the VirtualBox Guest additions not being installed. I tried to use NFS mounting but I got too annoyed trying to get my Mac set up as an NFS server. I tried to use svnlite to fetch from svn+ssh://mdf@, but it doesn't like my pass phrase for my ssh key. I can ssh from the new FreeBSD install to freefall, so this seems to be an svnlite issue. I tried to use pkg to install subversion. This gives me errors: ... Conflict found on path /usr/local/share/subversion/server-side/test_svn_server_log_parse.py between subversion-1.8.4(devel/subversion) and subversion-1.6.23_2(devel/subversion16) Conflict found on path /usr/local/share/subversion/xslt/svnindex.css between subversion-1.8.4(devel/subversion) and subversion-1.6.23_2(devel/subversion16) Conflict found on path /usr/local/share/subversion/xslt/svnindex.xsl between subversion-1.8.4(devel/subversion) and subversion-1.6.23_2(devel/subversion16) Conflict found on path /usr/local/etc/rc.d/svnserve between subversion-1.8.4(devel/subversion) and subversion-1.6.23_2(devel/subversion16) root@mdf-bsd:~ # pkg info pkg-1.1.4_10 New generation package manager So what's conflicting? To summarize: 1) can't (easily) share using VirtualBox 2) NFS didn't work in the first 2 minutes of effort 3) svnlite doesn't do svn+ssh 4) pkg can't install subversion I'm going to poke at NFS for a bit, but at some point I'd really just rather play a video game than hit my head against the wall.
