7.1-release and KDE4
Attempting to pkg_add kde4 fails because the lame3.97_1.tgz is not located in the latest ftp location. I and many others would appreciate it if you would add lame to latest folder so that this package will install. It was previously available in the 7.0 release. -- Joel Perry SBSC Registered Microsoft Partner 803.800.5650 ___ 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

I thought lame was one of the packages that couldn't be distributed in binary form due to license restrictions.

In the past, it really was. But I think it was possible to add it via pkg_add. It's some time ago, but memory serves me right, I did pkg_add -r lame because it was possible... if there was a way to find out if some software has been installed via port OR package, I could find this out. :-) Because of the few dependencies, it's no problem to use the port to install it first, then pkg_add -r the KDE 4 packages. Maybe install nasm prior to make. The Makefile of lame still states: RESTRICTED= patent issues, see http://www.mp3licensing.com/ If licensing problems are still present, there may be no way to put a precompiled package onto the FTP server. -- Polytropon From 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
