It is very interesting that you have a "real FreeBSD Kernel". It may be very interesting to use DEB/APT system on FreeBSD too as it is extremely easy-to-use and reliable. What's your idea? Is there really a way to use DEB packages on the original FreeBSD system? Does anyone think that having an optional APT system somewhere like in the Ports Collection or ... can be advantageous?
