As noted in <http://docs.FreeBSD.org/cgi/mid.cgi?201912302038.xBUKcol9050658>, the -c6 ports "expire tomorrow."
I don't see a documented process for migrating from linux_base-c6 to linux_base-c7; perhaps I'm being thicker than usual. For example, from prior migrations (e.g., the 20141209 entry in ports/UPDATING), there's a mention of: | 2. Persistently update the Linux kernel version in /etc/sysctl.conf: | | compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.18 and since there has (as far as I know) been no indication that that should be changed, I still have it (in stable/11, stable/12, and head). But <https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/linuxemu-lbc-install.html> does not mention a compat.linux.osrelease sysctl value at all. I had asked about the migration process Fri Sep 30 20:30:24 UTC 2016; at the time, the response was: | We are still working on the other c7 ports: | https://reviews.freebsd.org/D7886 but I have seen nothing further about the migration process itself. ports/UPDATING entry 20190710 does discuss the "c6" Linux emulation (but not "c7"). So: how should a system that has been configured to support linux_base-c6 be migrated to support linux_base-c7? Thanks. Peace, david -- David H. Wolfskill da...@catwhisker.org At least Trump can count on McConnell and Putin to "have his back." And the rest of us can consider what that means about each of them.
