Re: A jail?

[Rishi Chopra]

I was installing linux_base; it seems to be required, since I was 
getting an error about libintl.so.4 - then again, I also updated gmake 
via 'portupgrade -r gmake', so that may have solved the problem.

Sorry about the misleading context =)

Er, what directory were you in when you did the make install? The only
port that produces the message below is ports/emulators/linux_base,
which is definately not a dependency of postgresql, nor of any of its
dependents.

While installing postgres I get the following:

You need to create the null device in your jailed Linux environment. Run
this
outside the jail, then press enter:
mkdir -m 0755 -p <Jail root dir>/dev
rm -f <Jail root dir>//compat/linux/dev/null
mknod <Jail root dir>//compat/linux/dev/null c 2 2
chmod 666 <Jail root dir>//compat/linux/dev/null
Do I HAVE to make a jail? I was just going to run the postgresql port on
my FreeBSD box, sans-condom.  The box only has one user and there are no
security concerns to speak of.
-R
 

       

PostgreSQL is available via the FreeBSD ports system.  It does not require 
a jail or linux emulation.

What are you trying to do?
