The IDE doesn't run under FreeBSD. I worked on it a bit over this summer when the most recent Kylix came out, and it appears to rely on too many Linux-isms. The command-line tools work just fine, and produce binaries that are on par with the ones you get from Linux. If I remember from my testing, the compiler produces Linux-style ELF binaries. Getting the Kylix IDE to function on FreeBSD has been one of the ongoing hair-pulling tasks I undertake every few months. The installer alone is a pain in the ass, since it performs "compatibility checks" in such Linux-centric ways as hard-coding /bin/bash into the shell scripts, and searching for shared libraries by name from hard-coded paths. (GTK especially gives the installer fits because FreeBSD's gtk library has a -x11 at the end of the name.) But once you work around those issues with some creative symlinking and script editing, the console tools install fairly painlessly. --Mike --Q68bSM7Ycu6FN28Q Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE/oqE+CczNhKRsh48RAuuzAKCNknbBBFCwxPp4fopP7hmBBGPRgwCdE6Hg 2KafLnmbQ723v3zAezir3gE= =jZtG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Q68bSM7Ycu6FN28Q--
