XFree86 v. 4.2.1, Debian patchlevel 1, now has patches to make it compile in my netbsd-i386 (kernel 1.6, libc 12.83) chroot. All of these patches are now in the BTS and should make it into the xfree86 package in the relatively near future (as Branden has time to verify they don't break other things, etc.) That being done, I have uploaded the hand-build libc/libc-dev packages to the archive, and am slowly working on manually rebuilding *every* package that is in the chroot, and either: 1) Putting it aside with a note about outstanding bugs/issues, if it has bugs that are in the BTS but not yet resolved. 2) Putting it into a FIXME area if it has bugs that I have not yet managed to patch and submit patches for. 3) Being uploaded, if it is *absolutely clean* - that is, if it builds without anything more than dpkg-buildpackage -sd, does not have any obvious quirks (including config.sub/guess problems) in the logs, has no problem with dpkg-shlibdeps, and appears to produce a working executable. Archive is available at: deb http://debian-bsd.lightbearer.com/debian-bsd unstable main contrib non-free deb http://debian-bsd.lightbearer.com/debian-bsd experimental main contrib non-free (No, I still haven't resolved the uploading issues for other folks; however, there IS an outstanding bug against ftp.debian.ogr, requesting archive space) -- *************************************************************************** Joel Baker System Administrator - lightbearer.com lucifer@lightbearer.com http://users.lightbearer.com/lucifer/
