Re: RFS: libpsm2



Hi Afif,

Thank you for the preliminary comments and for taking a look at this.

Re: amd64 architecture

libpsm2 may very well compile on freebsd-amd64. However, the freebsd
kernel has no hfi1 module at this point in time. Lacking kernel
support, this package will be useless on that architecture. Also, I
believe that upstream has no intent to support freebsd. Thoughts?
