[OT-ish] Need a Binary for lang/sml-nj
I've got an amd64 machine (and no spare) and need help getting a binary for lang/sml-nj (it won't compile on amd64, it's marked ignore for whatever reason). I can send someone a 'pciconf -lv' of my machine if it would help.

It looks like ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-9-stable/Latest has smlnj.tbz (for use with pkg_add). But be sure to check /usr/ports/lang/sml-nj/Makefile for possible runtime dependencies. In worst case, use libmap. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ 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"

Okay, I didn't know that, as I'm still on an older system here, so I've not advanced enough to use the new pkg command on a daily basis. :-) I assume getting the sources for pkg_add from a 9.0 system and building it, then using it to forcedly install the available package is going to break something...

You may try this ugly emergency fix and see if SML starts at least in
a temporary jail.
In your home, or wherever you have some space available... (400MB should be
fine)
Fetch some i386 binaries for 9.1 (or your favorite release)
mkdir 9.1-i386
fetch -o -
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/9.1-RELEASE/base.txz | tar -x
-f - -C 9.1-i386
Copy the resolver configuration:
cp /etc/resolv.conf 9.1-i386/etc
Ensure that /usr/local is populated, just in case:
mtree -deU -f /usr/ports/Templates/BSD.local.dist -p 9.1-i386/usr/local
Add this to your /etc/jail.conf (replace my home directory with your own path)
sml {
name=sml;
host.hostname=sml;
ip4=inherit;
persist;
path=/home/olgeni/9.1-i386;
}
Create a jail for sml:
jail -c sml
Enter the jail:
jexec sml sh
Install SML from tbz package:
pkg_add -r
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-9.0-release/lang/smlnj-110.0.7_3.tbz
Run SML and hopefully get a prompt:
sml
Standard ML of New Jersey, Version 110.0.7, September 28, 2000 [CM; autoload
enabled]
-
I got one, so it seems to work :)
If SML starts this way then there is hope and you just need to clean
up the configuration a bit.
