Hi all, With Linux emulation enabled I can successfully run a statically linked Linux binary that I built on an Ubuntu system (with musl libc). I'd like to install the necessary development tools (compilers, libraries, headers, etc) in the Linux compat environment. It appears that linux_base-c6 does not contain a package manager (yum or dnf). What's the best way to install these tools? Did people have success installing and using a package manager, or should I manually download RPMs, or even compile from source? The wiki has this guide: https://wiki.freebsd.org/VIMAGE/Linux/CentOS55 but it's rather old and I couldn't learn much from it. Alternatively I'd also be interested in cross compiling to Linux directly from FreeBSD, if that's more practical. Still I'd need the headers and libraries. Cheers, Sijmen
