Why bother porting non-base packages, since FreeBSD has linux
emulation mode?
It seems to me that dpkg and apt are not compatible with BSD
ports. What debian-bsd needs is a good packaging system, that
handles dependencies properly, dist-upgrade properly, etc.
Isn't this the whole reason for debian-bsd - a proper packaging
system?
And what a waste a bandwidth with all sorts of people running
cvsup from their cron. Give me binary packages and apt upgrade.
