Yes. He's stated that he's looking for someone to take over the FreeBSD port. He's also been correcting the bugs I've found. Mr. Sugar is good people. Which is all fine and good. (And I think his 1.1.6 code works. But the code needs Automake1.7.2 and Autoconf 2.5.0+ to work and these are held up by a different port maintainer. If the person in charge of 1.7.2 automake and 2.5.7 autoconf can't be moved....not much I can do.) But the purpose of the bayonne software is to talk to telco cards. To the best of my knowledge, the only hardware 'supported' (According to the web sites) is Voicetronix. But one of the developers claimes they don't even have a FreeBSD box to TEST the code, and (a real gem here) I was told that the reason the code didn't COMPILE is I didn't have the latest version of the firmware loaded to the card. No plans on 5.0 support that I am aware of, so its a dead end. The Voicetronix answer in the last e-mail? - Try RedHat 7.3 At least they didn't say 'use windows'. *sigh* > Since you are one of the few people with this exotic Hardware, you are a good > candidate to unbreak the port and update it to a more recent version. Serial Number 101. Mark it as broken. Eventually you can remove it. You might want to hold off to Wednesday, as Mr. Sugar, Voicetronix, Cylogics (they sell the card as a FreeBSD supported protuct) are all at Linuxworld, and are busy selling stuff to Linux users. > Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-ports-bugs->arved > Responsible-Changed-By: arved > Responsible-Changed-When: Thu Jan 23 14:35:46 PST 2003 > Responsible-Changed-Why: > This looks like a challenge for me :) > > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=47416 > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports-bugs" in the body of the message
