As this is not an application available in packages/ports, the documentation indicates that it targets Linux:
http://slim.berlios.de/manual.php
Because the filesystem layouts between Linux & OpenBSD are different, you may find code which expects to read/write to a nonexistent location. More information can be found in
hier(7) when comparing to information for Linux.
Unless you just happen to run into someone who has ported this application to OpenBSD, I suspect no one will have the specific answer you are hoping to get. In general, porting issues result from:
- filesystem differences.
- libraries found in Linux, but not in OpenBSD.
- differences in the libraries (versions) themselves.
You should also study the
compat_linux(8) manpage for additional information.
