Hi,

I just tested the installation of linux-devel-5.2 by using the Linux native
RPM as installed by linux-base-5.2. Due to overlaying of /compat/linux, it
is not possible to use the Linux native RPM without messing up your FreeBSD
installation. I'm forced to use a FreeBSD native RPM to do the installation
of linux-devel-5.2.

The Linux native RPM can be used in all cases where the installed files do
not already exist outside /compat/linux in the same directory.

As a rule of thumb, the FreeBSD native RPM must be used to "initialize"
/compat/linux.
