Hello,
I'm currently running FreeBSD-2.1, and would like to use a number of the
newer packages in the 2.1.5 and current hierarchies. However, they require
things like libXaw 6.1 and libXext 6.1, where 2.1 is distributed with 6.0.
1) Is it possible ot just get these libraries without upgrading the OS to
2.1.5? The upgrade section in the README for 2.1.5 didn't make a full
upgrade sound like it was very much fun..
2) Is there somewhere where other libararies from the new OS can be found,
and will they work as well? (e.g. libc 3.0, etc.)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
