https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D210312 --- Comment #3 from Ed Maste <emaste@freebsd.org> --- There are things we *could* do: - We could have some infrastructure that linux_base hooks into, in order to prevent the installation from starting rather than having it fail 75% of the way through (or prompt the user to kldload linux) - For this specific case (ld.so.cache) we could have a FreeBSD port of Linux ldconfig - We could queue post-install actions, and run them later It may well be that requiring linux.ko to be loaded for pkg installation is= the only reasonable approach. But we provide a terrible user experience by abor= ting the installation part way through, and will need to find some way to address that. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
