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. -- Marcel Moolenaar mailto:marcel@scc.nl SCC Internetworking & Databases http://www.scc.nl/ Amsterdam, The Netherlands tel: +31 20 4200655 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
