I happily use Skype-1.4 on plain FreeBSD-6.2 for months and it works flawlessly. I don't have OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT or anything of that sort at all. I did just two small adjustments: Skype-1.4 must be run with setuid root (other people reported similar thing) and with - --resources=3D/usr/local/share/skype. IMHO no need to mark it BROKEN. - --=20 Nikola Le=C4=8Di=C4=87 =3D =D0=9D=D0=B8=D0=BA=D0=BE=D0=BB=D0=B0 =D0=9B=D0= =B5=D1=87=D0=B8=D1=9B fingerprint : FEF3 66AF C90E EDC3 D878 7CDC 956D F4AB A377 1C9B ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.8 (FreeBSD) iJwEAQEDAAYFAkfgC7QACgkQ/MM/0rYIoZjTrAP9EQSkPAPIPSpSLpPzmsR+lmPb 4UtzbmJmLHm01BUVRnf0IsoSt/cfyyJl6ONwVGNy4hksSK+gKdg37Z+tSyQp55Nq p28OZ7/hM9220oh1lFrfofESws4F7RM0bV0LbLuQG9z5z5R5NFuFGz1XQ1MvQ5j3 MsZVqvmOgO89q9LIMDE=3D =3D7wIh -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
