Well, I'm not aware of an active Debian/FreeBSD port (just > NetBSD). I'm happy to mention it in the package description once these > packages actually build for Debian/FreeBSD. The only port on the > horizon at present is netbsd-i386. I believe Robert is focusing on freebsd-i386. The last I knew, it was not in as advanced a stage (though that could seesaw, given that netbsd-i386 is currently undergoing fun with licenses and switchnig to -current (aka pre-2.0) for reasons mostly involving POSIX thread support). This is, FWIW, why there hasn't been any visible work on the 4.3.0 packages from me, at least. However, the license foo is now at a pausing stage, so I'm looking to get back to hammering on the build area in the next couple of days. Bootstrapping back to where we were should go a hell of a lot faster, all things considered. :) Agreed, however, that it's probably best to wait until the X packages build for the port, since getting that to work is one of the more non-trivial tasks facing a new port :) -- Joel Baker <fenton@debian.org>
