I just got a Raspberry Pi and have put FreeBSD on= it. I=E2=80=99ve been compiling the few packages I need but it takes a ver= y long time. > I too would very much like to see this happen but then the issue is keeping it updated. I would be perfectly fine with pkg on raspberry pi getting updated twice a month since it's not as high priority. There are existing packages out there but they are becoming older and older. Some I've seen are as old as December 2012. The way to work around the long build time is install tmux and put it in the background and check on it every hour or so. > Matthew Raspberry --=20 ------- inum: 883510009902611 sip: jungleboogie@sip2sip.info xmpp: jungle-boogie@jit.si
