Use the ports tree until we are able to create an arm build cluster, or use= some of the third party package repositories available out there (sorry I have no link for arm, just know that it does exists :) Bapt --AhhlLboLdkugWU4S Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAlE3b2cACgkQ8kTtMUmk6EzUAgCgs4T+sOojuT6UpWxpgAnEfL9X E+8AoI+0VSHazHTaezkWG5040rSx2QJh =6D96 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --AhhlLboLdkugWU4S--
