It's worth noting that GNU coreutils, tar, bash,= and a load of other things are in the ports repository. I wonder if it's = worth having a gnu-userland metaport, perhaps with something like the Solar= is approach of sticking them all in a different tree so that you can just a= dd that to the start of your PATH and have all of the GNU tools work by def= ault. =20 > >>>> > >>> > >>> > >>> They use chef. > >>> The chef omnibus installer assumes there is a /bin/bash.

Maintaining a port meaning making sure it workds properly the FreeBSD way. regards, Bapt --YD3LsXFS42OYHhNZ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iEYEARECAAYFAlRFWaMACgkQ8kTtMUmk6Ey7RACgwXEoQKIR9x0p4t1B8/AZIImu Hv4An0nty0+swNHHuSQ+pt+bOBM/jPsR =lSjc -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --YD3LsXFS42OYHhNZ--
