pkgconf-0.8.9 conflicts...
List, I've been seeing a lot of this recently when I try to install new ports. The following is on a fresh install of FreeBSD 9.0 Release, when I tried to install linux-f10-flashplugin11 from ports. (It happens with several other packages too):: Stop in /usr/ports/www/linux-f10-flashplugin11. pkgconf-0.8.9 conflicts with installed package(s): pkg-config-0.25_1 So, I try this:: pkg_delete pkg-config-0.25_1 But of course I can't deinstall it because several hundred already installed require it. Suggestions? -Modulok- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Hey Guys, If I want to upgrade from 8.1-RELEASE-p11 to 8.3 do I need to also update installed packages? One more thing: by when has 8.3 release maintenance?

Problem upgrading fbsd-7.4 -- 8.3
Am trying to upgrade fbsd-7.4 to 8.3. I get all the way through the usual procedure using sources, including installworld, when I attempt to run mergemaster as the final step, I get this fatal error. I've searched the list and google, but don't find the right answer. What am I possibly doing wrong and what should I do to get around this?

Laszlo Danielisz wrote: Great Mike, May I ask what is ABI? ABI is short for Application Binary Interface, and is a low-level interface between programs and the operating system [kernel] they run on. You may have seen API as well - short for Application Programming Interface. This generally/usually is relevant to programs talking to other programs. In FreeBSD, if changes to the ABI are deemed necessary, this will generally serve as a demarcation point between one major version revision and the next one coming along, e.g 7.x, 8.x, 9.x, and so on. -Mike ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Historically, lsof wa one such program. Such programs tended to have *LOUD* caveats in the build documentation, and run-time checks for kernel version consistency.

Re: legal question on licence terms
From owner-freebsd-questi...@freebsd.org Fri Sep 14 10:32:41 2012 From: Martyn Jansen martyn.jan...@zynstra.com To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:16:32 + Subject: legal question on licence terms Sirs, I'm looking at your licence terms and conditions and particularly the section on redistribution restriction on a number of ports. The restriction is stated as being applicable to redistribution on mass media. Could you please elaborate on what this means - clearly a number of leading solutions use FreeBSD so I'm trying to properly understand when and how the redistribution restrictions apply. In our own case we would be using FreeBSD as a component of managed services that we would be providing to our customers. The software would remain on our own server and would not be separately available to our customers. We assume therefore that this in any case does not constitute redistribution. For buiness purposes, it is _critical_ that you consult -- on a *paid*, professional basis --with a competent legal profesional in your jurisdiction -- one with expertise and experience in 'IP' (intellectual property) matters. That way, if the advice/opinion you get, and 'rely on', turns out to be incorrect, you have recourse against their malpractice insurance. That said, there is one set of rules that applies to the FreeBSD 'base system' -- which is owned, maintined, and distributed by the FreeBSD Foundation -- which allows essentially unlimited use for any reason as long as the copyright notices and source attribution are maintained. The 'ports collection' operates under *different* rules -- with potentially different rules for _each_and_every_ package in the collection. These packages are owned and maintained by various 'third parties', who THEMSELVES decide on the licensing requirements/restrictions they impose. You, or your legal counsel/solicitor/barrister, will have to review the licensing terms of _each_and_every_ such 'third party' package that you intend to make available to your users -- to see if/how/under what conditions you can do that. There are some packages where the rights owner allows FreeBSD to distribute their package to directly to 'end users', but does *not* allow someone who gets the package from FreeBSD to redistribute it to others. It is *YOUR* responsibility to review the license terms in each piece of software in the ports collection to determine what is/is not allowed by the licence terms on that piece of software, if it is for other than 'personal' use. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
