[I sent this to freebsd-questions@ three days ago but got no answers. I
hope these two lists are more appropriate places for this question.]

Hello,

What is the recommended way for obtaining linux ld binary
(/compat/linux/usr/bin/ld)?

I found in the archives that devel/linux_devel port used to provide it,
but it seems that there is no such port now, except
emulators/linux*-gentoo*.

The linux_base ports are not designed to do linux development. They are designed to run Linux programs on FreeBSD. As such some files are missing to give a fallthrough to the FreeBSD versions of it.

If you want to do Linux development on FreeBSD you need to install a linux_dist port (contains a compiler toolchain) and chroot into the corresponding directory (it's in /usr/local/...).

Bye,
Alexander.
