In any case, the main Re-making acroread5 did not help; the error message says anything about some incompatible FreeBSD stuff, so I suppose the start-script is broken.

Of those two, I find only acroread4 works on my linux-base-7.1, but from the error message, it looks like it didn't like my OS upgrade and re-making acroread5 would probably fix it. In any case, the main programs are scripts which one could probably debug if the problem is in the script like my problem seems to be.

Most ports can run with linux-base-6. Personally I have made better experience with linux-base-6. AFAIK linux-base-6 represents a RedHat 6.2 system, while linux-base-7 is RedHat 7.x. > Now, what are the pros and cons of -7.1 and -6?

linux_base vs linux_base-6?
I have recently finished a clean installation of FreeBSD-4.6.2. Since I run linux binaries I chose to install the linux-compatibility packages from the install media. This currently is linux_base-6, if I read it right. Now many ports have their dependencies listed as linux_base-7.1 or something similar. This means that my linux-compatibility tree got updated when I installed some of this ports? or should I do this manually by going to /usr/ports/emulators/linux_base and doing a 'make install'? Now, what are the pros and cons of -7.1 and -6? Suggestions?
