It's much simpler. Yesterday I installed real Player 5.0 using the ports to see if it works with my new linux_lib and linux_devel replacements. It worked somewhat out of the box. So this is what I suggest you do: download linux-base from my webpage http://www.wi.leidenuniv.nl/~mhmoolen/ and install it. After that, install the real-player using the ports collection. There are (just) two thing you need to do: (1) Make sure you have applied the following patch to the Makefile of the rvplayer port: *** Makefile.orig Thu Mar 18 13:02:41 1999 --- Makefile Thu Mar 18 13:03:02 1999 *************** *** 13,19 **** MAINTAINER= kkennawa@physics.adelaide.edu.au ! RUN_DEPENDS= /compat/linux/lib/libc.so.5:${PORTSDIR}/emulators/linux_lib ONLY_FOR_ARCHS= i386 NO_CDROM= "Redistribution not allowed" --- 13,19 ---- MAINTAINER= kkennawa@physics.adelaide.edu.au ! RUN_DEPENDS= /compat/linux/usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib/libc.so.5:${PORTSDIR}/emu lators/linux-base ONLY_FOR_ARCHS= i386 NO_CDROM= "Redistribution not allowed" (2) After installation of the linux-realplayer port, update /compat/linux/etc/ld.so.conf to include the path where the rvplayer libs are installed (/usr/local/lib/rvplayer5.0 IIRC) and run /compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig. There is no need to create or update LD_LIBRARY_PATH envvars. That's it! If this don't solve your problem, then euh... something else will :-) marcel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
