I have been trying without success to install the linux_base package.
The install target in the makefile calls rpm to install the RPM-format
package files, but the bash package mysteriously fails to install.  Turning
on debugging for rpm give no useful info.

Has anybody seen this? I'm running 3.2-RELEASE, but with an up-to-date
/usr/ports.
