I recently noticed that ports/emulators/linux_base-c7 now exists (as of r421391: 2016-09-05 13:10:30 -0700 (Mon, 05 Sep 2016)). On the other hand, while I count 76 "linux{,base}-c6*" ports (as of ports/head @422979), I only see a single "linux{,_base}-c7*" port -- ports/emulators/linux_base-c7 itself. Scanning through ports/UPDATING, the most recent entry on emulators/linux* is the above-cited 20141215, and the previous entry (20141209) is the latest entry to document a process for migrating from one Linux emulation infrastructure to another. I believe a few of the particular it cites may well be rather out-of-date. So I'm wondering: * At what point might it be ... reasonable ... to consider migrating from linux_base-c6 to linux_base-c7? * Are there any particular steps to take to accomplish such a migration?
