carefull confirm on using linux_base-fc8 Click to flag this post
Hi all
I just did a clean install of freebsd 7.2 final release (I not enable linux compatibility during install). In first boot, I enabled linux compatibilitty with linux_base-fc8 as below: ==================================== Add linux_enable=”YES” to /etc/rc.conf. Add compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.16 to /etc/sysctl.conf. Add OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=f8 to /etc/make.conf. Add this line to /etc/fstab: linproc /usr/compat/linux/proc linprocfs rw 0 0 mkdir -p /usr/compat/linux/proc mount /usr/compat/linux/proc /etc/rc.d/abi start /etc/rc.d/sysctl start cd /usr/ports/emulators/linux_base-f8 && make install clean ==================================== When 'make install clean' in port 'linux_base-f8', I saw that it retrieved files (rpm etc) from fc8 directory on the net. However, when I install net/skype, I saw that it retrieved files (rpm etc) from fc4 on the net (sorry for my bad English). (I still not installed X yet so I cannot very fied my skype will run fine or not). So my question is: is it normal or abnormal when 'make install ' retrieved files (rpm etc) from fc4, not from fc8 althought I already enabled linux_base-f8? If it is abnormal, how can I solve it? Thanks and regards |

Strange, Skype's download site is offering an fc5 RPM for Fedora Core 6 and Fedora 7. Which would explain why net/skype has a warning that the FC6 ABI is the minimal required; although the distfile says skype_static-2.0.0.72-oss.tar.bz2 rather then an rpm file.
I assume there is no explicit F8 RPM, unless it is straight from Fedora -- I would likewise assume the main issue is the Linux ABI, rather then which version of Fedora the RPM was made for; but I avoid the Red-headed Package Manager ;-)
