I have been asked to move a Python application that uses gdbm (databases/py-gdbm) databases from Linux to FreeBSD. The actual database files do not appear to be transportable; it appears to do with block size from stat(2), and the fact that FreeBSD uses a 64 bit offset where Linux uses 32 bits. Short of unloading all the data under Linux and importing it again on FreeBSD, does anyone know of a way to use the original Linux databases on FreeBSD? _________________________________________________ Antony Russell Technical Director Clarotech Consulting (Pty) Ltd EMail: TonyR@Clarotech.co.za Phone: 021.671.5350 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
