The SAPDB "build tools" are extremely Linux-centric (they expect a LSB-compliant filesystem layout, and it's next to impossible to trick it, as paths are hardcoded everywhere). Furthermore, the actual SAPDB product is again, Linux-centric and has all the warts that one would expect. I eventually gave up and just ran it in Linux emulation -- much less effort than making a FreeBSD port. -- Matt Emmerton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
